mgorny/gentoo-python repository overview

The purpose of this image is to provide a reasonably wide environment to test Python packages. It includes a bunch of Python interpreters, plus the tox test runner. It is built on top of Gentoo, therefore it carries the newest versions of the few currently maintained branches of CPython and PyPy.

At the time of writing, the image includes:

• CPython 2.7.18_p15
• CPython 3.8.13_p6
• CPython 3.9.13_p4
• CPython 3.10.6_p2
• CPython 3.11.0_rc1
• PyPy2.7 7.3.9 (pypy)
• PyPy3.6 7.3.9_p5 (pypy3)

(the _p* suffix indicates Gentoo patchset version — usually security backports)

Note that some of the old versions are EOL now, and contain unaddressed security vulnerabilities. Use this image for testing, not production.
