Package: ipython3 Version: 2.4.1-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
The `ipython3` command is not runnable from within a virtualenv if ipython is not installed locally. To reproduce: * Create an empty Python 3 virtualenv using the `virtualenv` command, ensuring that --no-site-packages is passed if necessary. * Run `ipython3` The following traceback appears: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ipython3", line 4, in <module> from IPython import start_ipython ImportError: No module named 'IPython' Changing the first line of the script to #!/usr/bin/python3 fixes the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages ipython3 depends on: ii python3-decorator 4.0.6-1 ii python3-pkg-resources 18.8-1 ii python3-simplegeneric 0.8.1-1 pn python3:any <none> ipython3 recommends no packages.
