## Homebrew-provided Python bindings ## Homebrew-provided Python bindings
Some formulae provide Python bindings. Sometimes a `--with-python` or `--with-python@2` option has to be passed to `brew install` in order to build the Python bindings. (Check with `brew options <formula>`.) Some formulae provide Python bindings.
**Warning!** Python may crash (see [Common Issues](Common-Issues.md)) if you `import <module>` from a brewed Python if you ran `brew install <formula_with_python_bindings>` against the system Python. If you decide to switch to the brewed Python, then reinstall all formulae with Python bindings (e.g. `pyside`, `wxwidgets`, `pygtk`, `pygobject`, `opencv`, `vtk` and `boost-python`). **Warning!** Python may crash (see [Common Issues](Common-Issues.md)) if you `import <module>` from a brewed Python if you ran `brew install <formula_with_python_bindings>` against the system Python.
