• **PyPy** – `$pythonLocation/bin/python` (Linux/macOS), `$pythonLocation/python.exe` (Windows)
• **GraalPy** – `$pythonLocation/bin/python` (Linux/macOS)

Note: CPython versions include a symlink or copy of the Python executable at the root, while PyPy and GraalPy retain upstream directory layouts. | +| `Python_ROOT_DIR` | https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FindPython.html#module:FindPython | +| `Python2_ROOT_DIR` | https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FindPython2.html#module:FindPython2 | +| `Python3_ROOT_DIR` | https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FindPython3.html#module:FindPython3 | ## Using `update-environment` flag
