Hi @MarsSeed, the plan is always have updated packages.

For latest version of pypy3-installer, will use pypy3-build and pypy3-flit-core as https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-installer.

  1. Build pypy3-flit-core as makedepends: pypy3-build and pypy3-installer which not depends of itself pypy3-flit-core (this one depends of makedepends pypy3-setuptools).
  2. Upgrade this pypy3-installer and pypy3-build to latest version and rid off python-dephell, but makedepends of pypy3-flit-core. I will submit python-dephell to arch4edu binary repository if python-dephell maintainer do not replace python-m2r by python-m2r2 or do it with suggest patch.

For step 2, users they should have and older version of pypy3-build (let's say 0.9.0) and pypy3-installer (let's say 0.2.3) that do not makedepends of pypy3-flit-core.

Arch Linux used this trick for python-build, python-installer before python-dephell EOL and was moved to AUR.

I do not like this idea, but I choose between leave pypy3 tool-chain broken or fix it.

Using the obsolete dephell here is overkill.

Also, installer v0.7.0 supports Python 3.7+. Can you update to that version?

If you really must execute a deprecated setup.py here, why don't you include a copy of a working setup.py in this repo?

Forcing the user to install a shitton of dephell's dependencies is really an unnecessary burden for this task IMHO.
