Installing all the optional packages without understanding what they
are doesn't even make sense to do.
For example, one of the optional packages (Valgrind), rebuilds Python
in a special debugging mode for doing instrumented debugging, which
only works on Linux... and others contain binaries only for certain
platforms.
One should only install optional packages that you have a specific
need for and understand.
