The pytest maintainer has also said they would like to get rid of pypy support from pytest.

Over in bug 937769 Chris Lamb proposed a patch to run the testsuite with python 3. Obviously running the testsuite with a different python version from that used to actually run the program is suboptimal but I think it's the lesser evil here. > > I manually applied the patch, cleaning up some formatting and making the dependency versioning for the python3-stem build-dependency match that for the pypy-stem build-dependency.
