The remaining cases of packages which have a dependency on python and/or python2 are either this (packages which contain a python script with a python shebang line), or the other case which I hadn't previously considered - a package which contain an executable or shared library linked with libpython2.7.dll. So, again I need inspect these to determine what should happen to them.
