You don't need to install Python, since Modeller includes its own Python interpreter.

You also don't need to install glibc, because that is the system C library, which every Linux system will have. It just needs to be 2.3 or later, which is also likely to be the case unless your system is very very old.

You do need glib though. But on almost all Linux systems this is either already installed, or there is a simple package for it. What kind of system are you trying to install Modeller on?
