Re: Byte-compilation for pypy3

Yes, I did.

That'd be pypy3{compile,clean}

OK, so, now to figure out the "magic" part (byte-compiling already
installed modules when pypy3 is installed / removed.

Should I run the runtime.d directory? Currently everything in that will
only do things with cpython bytecode.

Apps that aren't in dist-packages probably don't need pypy3 bytecode,
unless they want to be run with pypy.

Anything that tries to determine the version (e.g
/usr/share/python3/runtime.d/public_modules.rtinstall and
/usr/share/python3/runtime.d/public_modules.rtremove) looks like they
would break if I told them the version was pypy3.

So, I'm somewhat tempted to ignore runtime.d entirely, and just
byte-compile /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages. That seems pretty hacky,
though :/
