It is generated, by the way. To build a pypy distribution, after translation you can call pypy/tool/release/package.py; this is how the nightly downloads are made. PyPy does not use any prefix or anything: to install, just unpack the .tgz somewhere and eventually add a link in /usr/local/bin: http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/getting-started.html#installing-pypy -- Amaury Forgeot d'Arc
