Python 2.5 may not be installed (it's no longer available on Wheezy,
so it wouldn't surprise me if Jessie also doesn't have it), but quite
possibly there's another Python available. On my Wheezy system, I
already have Python 2.7 installed, and apt-getting jython doesn't ask
to install any more Pythons; but 'apt-cache show jython' doesn't
suggest anything that'd be pulling in Python, and I don't have a handy
way to poke around and find what would be pulling that in.
