Setup-python pypy-3.6 on macOS is broken #311
Comments
I think this is bit-rot from the combination of a EOL Python version with an evolving macOS platform. PyPy issue 3314 was fixed in Jan 2021. The last released PyPy3.6 was in Nov 2020. The last CPython bugfix release was 3.6.8, 2018-12-24. PyPy continued for a while after that until Nov 2020 but has also given up on 3.6. Did CPython backport the change to fix this problem to CPython 3.6? |

It would be helpful to move the default pypy3 to a supported version: 3.7 at least if not 3.8 |
I was surprised that "pypy3" meant 3.6 and not a newer version. |
I think this is the problematic code in
|
The documentation does not mention a pypy3 nor pypy-3.6 variant, so closing seems reasonable. |

cc @mattip do you think this is a PyPy bug or a packaging one?
