I did not need it at > 1.3.8, so I won't need it and 1.4.4 Things like this are usually an option of the "configure" script used to set the build options before compiling. I'm a bit suprised about KOffice though, because I thought it was using the Kross multi-language engine. Maybe the package you are using includes Python scripts and therefore depends on Python rather than suggesting it as an option. IIRC Kross will be moving to the KDE libs for KDE4 and applications won't have to decide on a certain scripting language, but for KDE3 they unfortunately have if they want to provide extensibility for non-C++ coders. However, as I wrote above, such features are usually a build time option can the applications are usually able to build without if told so.
