+===============
+Pypy and Debian
+===============
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+The following debian packages are useful when working with pypy:
+
+- python2.4 (of course)
+- libgc-dev (boehm garbage collector)
+- mono-gmcs (CLI backend
+- llvm-cfe (llvm backend)
+- spidermonkey-bin (javascript backend)
+- (to be continued)
+
+Quirks and tips
+---------------
+
+llvm backend
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The translation using the llvm backend needs llvm-gcc to be in the
+PATH. You will need to add /usr/lib/llvm/llvm-gcc4/bin to you PATH
+environment variable.
