Source: pypy3
Version: 7.3.16+dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist

The current pypy3 package builds a pypy3.9. This excludes recent Python
packages that require Python 3.10 or newer (for comparison, 3.9 was in
bullseye, and bookworm has 3.11). It is also a bit confusing to users
who might look at the PyPy version provided (7.3.16+dfsg-2), see the
PyPy announcements ("PyPy 7.3.16 includes 3.10"), and get rejection from
tools not treating the pypy as a 3.10.

Please consider updating the pypy packages to include Python 3.10.

I've tried doing the update by stupidly replacing 3.9 with 3.10 in the
debian/ directory, but apparently that also changes the upstream
sources, and I have not yet managed to convince `gbp import-orig
--uscan` to "switch over".


Thanks for maintaining PyPy in Debian
