We've released Pyston v2.2 in our new repository, please migrate to the new repository for future updates.

Bug fixes and smaller improvements to make Pyston easier to use
This release includes a new Ubuntu 16.04 package, as well as a portable release which can simply be extracted and works on multiple Linux distros (tested on Ubuntu and Fedora).

Debian packages: install via sudo apt install ./pyston_2.1*.deb then run via pyston or pip-pyston.
Portable directory: unpack pyston_2.1.tar.gz into a new directory then run Pyston via one of the pyston symlinks inside the directory.

We recommend setting up virtual environments using pyston -m venv since the Ubuntu-provided virtualenv package is fairly old.

You may need to install some libraries to be able to run the pre-built binary. On an ubuntu 14.04 system, the following should be enough:

sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-0 libgmp10 libatomic1
