I can't speak for Perl.  But for Python, you certainly should be able to 
craft your own working Python version.  There is nothing special in the 
ActivePython binaries, other than everything Komodo needs in one 
package.  I made a valiant effort to continue running Komodo on Linux 
with Python built from sources, but gave up once I discovered I didnt 
have the XML package configured correctly.  Obviously people with a clue 
on Linux would fare better than I ;-)

Or, IOW, ActivePython is the only configuration Komodo is known to run 
under, but there are no obvious reasons why other configurations are not 
suitable.
