I suggest to review the requirements
currently on cygwin64 texlive is pulling both python and python3
I have strong doubts about both, and I do't see why texlive
should require numpy
This is coming from my last setup run
python-chardet (2.0.1-2)
Python character encoding detection library
Required by: python-pygments
python-imaging (1.1.7-5)
Python Imaging Library
Required by: python-pygments
python-pygments (1.5-2)
Python syntax highlighting module
Required by: texlive-collection-binextra
python3 (3.2.5-3)
Py3K language interpreter
Required by: texlive-collection-binextra, texlive-collection-mathextra,
texlive-collection-pictures, python3-numpy, python3-tkinter,
python3-setuptools
python3-numpy (1.7.2-1)
Py3K scientific computing module
Required by: texlive-collection-pictures
python3-setuptools (0.6.34-1)
Py3K package management tool
Required by: python3-numpy
python3-tkinter (3.2.5-3)
