Why bother with perl when you know python? :)
Try installing Python eggs compared to installing Perl modules.
No wonder the Python packages are called eggs - they break easily :-)
Python programmers don't know not to bother with eggs because there's
Debian. :-)
Indeed. In all seriousness though I've heard this a lot of times, from a
number of senior Python personalities (not Guido though).
I can't help but wonder if it hurts Python in the long wrong, because it
makes it harder for people to play if they are in strange and unusual
places (and I don't just mean Win32 here).
