Some of the utilities in newer version of BIND, such as dnssec-keymgr, are written in python. This utility is very useful if you're going to sign zones using BIND. If you don't want or need this and a couple of other utilities for DNSSEC key management, you can rebuild BIND by passing the --without-python flag to configure.
