pypy(2) support has been dropped in the meantime, only pypy3 is left: # fgrep PYTHON_COMPAT *.ebuild regex-2017.04.05.ebuild:PYTHON_COMPAT=( python2_7 python3_{6,7} ) regex-2017.04.05-r1.ebuild:PYTHON_COMPAT=( python2_7 python3_{6,7} pypy3 ) regex-2019.11.1.ebuild:PYTHON_COMPAT=( python{2_7,3_{6,7,8}} pypy3 ) regex-2020.2.20.ebuild:PYTHON_COMPAT=( python{2_7,3_{6,7,8}} pypy3 ) I'm therefore closing as obsolete.
