I have to agree with Alejandro here, whilst help() not working is not ideal, we are targetting "embedded" systems where something like this is not unreasonable for the size gain. Does anyone have any size information about the implications of this? I'd guess there could be quite a chain of modules that could end up installed with this change. If you don't like the import error, we could just patch it to say "Sorry, pydoc not installed". Cheers, Richard
