So, I maintain PyPy in Debian/Ubuntu itself. PyPy 1.8 is in 12.04, so
they can just install that, unless they are wanting newer releases as
they become available. I will probably backport future releases to
precise-backports, but won't commit to doing that for the life of the
release.

I was recently added to the team that manages that PPA, with the
intention of overhauling it, but haven't done anything about that yet.

The PPA's packaging is a bit weird and definitely needs an overhaul.
I'm intending to just use the same packaging approach as the distro
package (including the patches I'm applying, such as PEP3147 support)
