Created attachment 473596 [details]
Patch to python-setuptools.spec to add a pypy- subpackage (no changelog entry yet)

I've packaged the PyPy python runtime for Fedora, and am hoping to eventually build out a stack of Python modules for it.  See:
   https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/PyPyStack

I'm attaching a patch to python-setuptools which adds a pypy-setuptools subpackage.

As is, I don't think this is ready yet to apply, due to a couple of caveats:

(i) the site_packages location currently embeds the full PyPy version in its location: pypy-1.4.1  We probably don't want to require rebuilding all pypy packages every time we update to a new version of pypy
(ii) I'm not yet sure what upstream's plans are w.r.t. bytecode formats

but am posting here for comment.

I am against this.  Separate packages for these please.
