Apparently for the tools subdirectory http://cgit.freedesktop.org/media-player-info/tree/tools
But it seems they're not installed by default (anymore?)

Looking back at release 19 it was needed for creating the package (easy to notice, because build breaks to due python2,3)

It's still needed during build in latest version, or the configure script will stop with the following error:

checking for python3... no
configure: error: python3 not found

I don't think the tools subdirectory was distributed, though. I think python should be moved to makedepends then. @Ionut what do you think?
