Summary:                    _curses.so is missing python27
(2.7.8,REV=2014.09.23)  (sparc solaris 10 9/10)
Description: 
Hi folks!  It looks like there's a bug in the python27 build.  Maybe it was
linked against /lib/libcurses.so instead of ncurses or something?

I would love to avoid building python from scratch on these machines - you
guys do such a great job :)

The BUILD_DEP_PKGS are likely missing packages as we don't have a clean
build environment - when a dependent package is installed it is silently
picked up.

However, I don't see a necessity to add development packages to the Python
package, this is most certainly not correct. What do you want to achieve by
this?
