How would it depend on environment? A shell is a requirement, tcsh and
or bash are optional. Of course a shell is a bad example, like saying
you need a kernel or a c library. But as far as environment, it doesn't
matter if you use Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, etc., dependencies are still
dependencies, either required or optional.

Several links away from that page and you start to get something
resembling useful, but that page doesn't make an attempt to answer my
question.

The best page I've found is http://tools.openoffice.org/build_env.html,
but search for python and you see only --with-system-python. The
questions are thus:

- Is <package> truly required or is it optional?
- If <package> can be left out what function would be missing?

This kind of information enables system developers/integrators to make
more informed choices.

Thanks for your reply!
