You should be able to build the library, parser, and binutils without
Python. Your build commands would look something like:

$ (cd libraries/libapparmor && ./autogen.sh && ./configure \
   && make && make check) && \
  (cd binutils && make && make check) && \
  (cd parser && make)

You won't be able to run `make check` in parser/ as some of the tests
depend on Python (and some Perl).
