Package: ipython
Version: 0.8.2.dfsg-2
Severity: normal
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Interactively entering the following, allowing ipython
to automatically provide indentation:
def a(b):
b()
return True
causes an indentation error (as expected). I press "up"
to retrieve the history, and go back to add in the
additional space before "return". Pressing enter causes:
NameError: name 'e' is not defined
Weirder still: if True is replaced with 'q' and some value
is assigned to the variable q, ipython returns that value
as the next "out" result. Find transcript below.
The "call" b() appears to not matter (it can be replaced
with other code, for instance "b=b").
