It does to, you should have a files like:

bash-3.00$ ls -l /usr/lib/postgresql/lib/pl*.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32896 Dec 1 04:19 /usr/lib/postgresql/lib/plperl.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 114252 Dec 1 04:19 /usr/lib/postgresql/lib/plpgsql.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39780 Dec 1 04:19 /usr/lib/postgresql/lib/plpython.so

You have to su to postgres and run createlang on each database you want to
have the language in though. Something like:

createlang -d databasename plpython

You could do this for the template1 database if you want it to be in all
subsequently created databases. I always find that more confusing in the long
run though.
