can we do that in a separate session? I'm not keen on introducing another
hierarchy like /usr/lib/pypy2/dist-packages, and a hierarchy of pypy-* and
pypy3-* packages. This is an issue for dependency tracking (for Debian
packages), and multiarch able packages. I feel that deserves some more
preparation, and time.
