This is a mis-installed PyPy.  To fix it, run PyPy as root and type:

    import syslog

You may have to also import a few other modules as needed.  ("syslog"
appears in the traceback above.)

Note also that cppyy is now included in PyPy by default (on
non-Windows platforms), so you don't need to retranslate if that's the
only reason.


A bientôt,

Armin.
