Hello,
'policycoreutils' contains a dependency on 'python' and other python
modules. Because 'policycoreutils' has some low-level SELinux tools
(e.g. /sbin/restorecon) which might be required by other packages
(e.g. 'util-linux' in FC5), 'python' will be installed for packages
which do not require it.
Possible solutions:
* rewrite 'genhomedircon' in C
* move 'genhomedircon' plus the python modules into an own subpackage
