Keep in mind that that command only shows you a single dependency
chain.  Try again with "aptitude -v why python" to see all of the
dependencies.  On my ubuntu 11.04 machine, that command produces over
9000 lines of output, and over 800 distinct packages that depend on
python in one way or another.
