Yes, os.tmpfile() was added in the meantime.  I personally don't see
much the point of making Debian packages of PyPy at the moment, given
that we're in a state where you are almost always better off if you
start from our Subversion repository instead of from a release a few
months old.  We're not "user-ready" and this situation will not change
before some more months, maybe 1 year.  I'd really recommend starting
from our 'getting-started' document on the web site instead of the
Debian packages.


A bientot,

Armin.
