The version in Scott Howard's repository is working for me. Thanks!!! ...But minor issue is that some of the graphics backends don't work. (Under Tools --> Preferences --> IPython console or Python console).
For IPython console, the default (inline) works fine, and Qt4 also works fine, but Qt5 doesn't work: In [1]: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt In [2]: plt.plot(3,3) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<ipython-input-2-4e78340ee40a>", line 1, in <module> plt.plot(3,3) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 3146, in plot ax = gca() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 928, in gca return gcf().gca(**kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 578, in gcf return figure() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 527, in figure **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_qt5agg.py", line 43, in new_figure_manager return new_figure_manager_given_figure(num, thisFig) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_qt5agg.py", line 51, in new_figure_manager_given_figure return FigureManagerQT(canvas, num) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_qt5.py", line 465, in __init__ self.toolbar.message.connect(self._show_message) TypeError: connect() failed between NavigationToolbar2QT.message[str] and _show_message() For Python console, the default ("automatic") doesn't work (similar error) but one of the other options (Tkinter) works. But anyway it's entirely usable AFAICT after picking appropriate graphics backends. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1620300 Title: [SRU] Spyder won't start (ImportError: No module named QtWebKit) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spyder/+bug/1620300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
