#### Missing modules standard library
The interpreters `python26` and `python27` do not include modules that
require external dependencies. This is done in order to reduce the closure size.
The following modules need to be added as `buildInput` explicitly:
* `python.modules.bsddb`

* `python.modules.crypt`
* `python.modules.gdbm`

For convenience `python27Full` and `python26Full` are provided with all
