If I used cppyy in a project that I then made into a pip package, how would this affect distribution? It sounds like the end-user downloading the code would need a C++ compiler on their system, or does cppyy come with one?


Answering my own question, it seems they ship LLVM with it: https://cppyy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/philosophy.html#llvm-...


But then, you’d need a compiler to compile LLVM before you can use it, wouldn’t you? Or do they include a prebuilt one that, then, will only support one CPU architecture?
