PyPy is a very compliant implementation of the Python language. PyPy has several advantages and distinctive features: speed (Just-in-Time compiler), lower memory usage for large programs, sandboxing and stackless mode. This script is for PyPy implementation of Python 2.7 from sources. Beware: this takes up a lot of time and about 5Gb of RAM in a 64bit system. And still 3Gb on a 32bit system. Note: This package does conflict with pypy, overwriting files. OPTIONAL: pypy or PyPy, available on SBo. If pypy2 is installed, from binary repackaging using pypy, or from a previous installation of PyPy, it'll be used instead of CPython2.7, as it is twice as fast. It might even be better for a first build of PyPy to build and install pypy first. pycparser is required only when using Slackware's CPython2.7 for building. REQUIRES: you need one of pycparser, pypy or PyPy.
