IPython stopped working as well. The root cause seems to be the application of curses-init.dpatch (which was allegedly created for python2.6) on python <= 2.5 interpreters in the latest 2.5.4-1ubuntu4 release (in Jaunty, not sure which release introduces such patch in other distro version).
If the additional patch provided by Evan Broder can't be applied for some reason, just prevent the curses-init.dpatch from being applied in 2.5! It seems pretty pointless to apply a patch which should improve functionality which screws up everything instead. -- Python2.5.4 curses.initscr() fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/369203 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
