@@ -207,13 +203,9 @@ The AppArmor userspace utilities are written with some assumptions about
 installed and available versions of other tools. This is a (possibly
 incomplete) list of known version dependencies:
 
-AppArmor.pm (used by aa-audit, aa-autodep, aa-complain, aa-disable,
-aa-enforce, aa-genprof, aa-logprof, aa-unconfined) requires minimum
-Perl 5.10.1.
+The Python utilities require a minimum of Python 2.7 or Python 3.3.
 
-Python scripts require a minimum of Python 2.7. Some utilities as well
-as some of the parser test scripts may require Python 3.3. Python 3.0,
-3.1, and 3.2 are largely untested.
+Some utilities (aa-exec, aa-notify and aa-decode) require Perl 5.10.1 or newer.
 
 Most shell scripts are written for POSIX-compatible sh. aa-decode expects
 bash, probably version 3.2 and higher.
