What is the current status for pypy and pypy3k as of 07/01/2014?

[tegsky...@gmail.com]

Gevent for PyPy (Python 2.7) has been a work in progress for months and I'm curious as to when it can be or will be considered production ready. On top of that, the first stable release of PyPy3 (Python 3.2) has been released recently and not sure if that is going to be a focus on Gevent at this time or will be put on the backburner until the Gevent team is confident in the status of Gevent for standard PyPy.

Any updates would be great. Thanks! :-P

I've been testing it a bit; seems to work well, except for an annoying cffi
error message when it starts (you really shouldn't initialize "extern"
variables …) and another annoying one from threading (the ususal, cause by
"you monkeypatched threading too late", except that I did that first thing)
on stop.

Hi smurf, can you describe the steps that we need to do in order to compile and use gevent with pypy? 

Thanks in advance.

"pypy install gevent" (from a virtualenv) worked last week. ;-)

Hi Matthias,

  Thanks a lot for the hint. I did the following on my Ubuntu 14.04:

----

sudo apt-get install virtualenv

sudo apt-get install pypy

virtualenv -p /usr/bin/pypy ~/virtualenv/pypy

source ~/virtualenv/pypy/bin/activate

cd ~/dev/

git clone https://github.com/surfly/gevent.git

cd gevent

python setup.py build

sudo python setup.py install 

----

It seems to get installed, although I am getting the following errors during installation:

PyPy version:

Python 2.7.3 (2.2.1+dfsg-1, Nov 28 2013, 05:09:46)

[PyPy 2.2.1 with GCC 4.8.2] on linux2

Any ideas what can be the issue with gevent/_socket3.py line 133?

Actually I was wrong. I did not get installed.

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

And now for something completely different: ``PyPy 2.0-beta2 released''

>>>> import gevent

ImportError: No module named gevent

Any ideas what I have done wrong?
