Package: pyenv-runtime (2.5.5-2)

Simple Python version management (runtime components)

Pyenv lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python. pyenv-runtime allows minimal execution of pyenv in shared environments (e.g. HPC clusters). pyenv-runtime only allows execution of pyenv shims on worker hosts. While the full pyenv package (with dependencies) is installed only on the management host.

Ideal for setups where /home is shared via NFS and users need consistent Python version selection across nodes. The purpose of this split is to allow pyev-runtime to be used for shared environments (HPC/NFS), running only to run shims. While full pyenv (with install/local) for management on the master node.
