Hi ya, Yeah, good idea!
A list of some pypy things to do off the top of my head... - A section in the wiki on how to compile with pypy would be good. Somewhere linked off: https://pygame.org/wiki/Compile - With that pypy nightly download script. - I saw there were still a number of test failures (I think 40ish), on the pypy that comes with TravisCI. I think there is a way with Travis CI to "don't care if this fails". - I haven't looked into wheels for pypy for pip at all. - I don't think it should hold up the 1.9.4 release to try and fix the remaining issues. My guess is some would be quite tricky. - I've only tried compiling on Linux... not windows, mac, etc. Not sure what dragons we'd find there! Hopefully friendly dragons. cheers, On Sunday, February 11, 2018, Stuart Axon <stu.axon+pyg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi René > I noticed you wrapping up pypy related fixes the other day, will this > release work out of the box, or are there still some failing tests. > Either way, it might be worth mentioning the pypy status in the README. > > Cheers > Stuart > > > On 11 February 2018 at 08:56, René Dudfield <ren...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Found the bug reports.
