I'll see if I can install from there.

When you install a shared package such as python-uno, the install checks
for all installed Pythons and does an install for each -- so it gets
installed for Python 2.6 and Python 2.7 for me.  Also some will install
for Python 3.2 as well.  So you are right in saying that a PyPy
execution will not automatically search for stuff in the CPython trees,
but what I am saying is that shared package sources get multiply
installed, once to each appropriate tree.
