well, no: if you run pypy setup.py install on whatever package, what happens is that you install this package in pypy's site-package directory instead of cpython's one. > I'd like to have the option to choose either the standard CPython or PyPy.

Does PyPy > work with virtualenv? yes, pypy supports virtualenv but: 1) you need a pypy newer than pypy 1.3: you can build one by yourself from svn, or download one of our nightly builds: http://buildbot.pypy.org/nightly/trunk/ note that you probably want the one with -jit and -linux in it, which is a 32 bit executable. There is no pypy-jit for linux 64 bit yet (but it might be there soon). 2) you need a recent version of virtualenv, as pypy support has been added only recently (http://bitbucket.org/ianb/virtualenv/changeset/a03cb042dd81). AFAIK, no released version supports it, so you need to install/run it from the mercurial repository. ciao, Anto _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
