pyenv forces users to compile the Python interpreter themselves, which can take a long time with --enable-optimizations. None of the user repos available builds with optimizations, or has signed packages AFAIK. Of course they could in the future, but I think having the packages in the repos is much better in terms of security and usability. I run one of the user which provides these packages and I don't see myself fixing any of the issues I pointed out due to technical limitations.
Incidentally... if you don't see yourself fixing the --enable-optimizations or gpg --detach-sign problem for your own builds, I'm morbidly curious as to the technical limitations and would like to know why you think these technical limitations will vanish once you're uploading them to repos.archlinux.org specifically. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
