Re: [pypy-dev] Need to rebuild wheels for every pypy minor version

In the mean time, if you want to live dangerously, you can always rename your wheel something like 'foo-py2-pypy_41-linux_x86_64.whl', and then pip will happily install it on newer pypys. Whether it will work though is hard to say... -n
If I understand this correctly, the issue is that pip/wheel cannot rely on the ABI version from pypy so they have no way if a wheel would still be compatible or not. So they just generate a different wheel for every version to avoid having to deal with that problem at all. Is that correct? On Tue, Jul 25, 2017 at 1:24 PM Nathaniel Smith <njs@pobox.com> wrote:
