Package: spyder Version: 2.3.6+dfsg1-1 Severity: important --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Dear maintainer, since the upgrade of matplotlib from 1.4.2-3.1 to 1.5.0~rc2-1 the consoles hang on startup, making spyder unusable. Downgrading back to matplotlib 1.4.2-3.1 resolves this problem. Spyder3 does seem to be affected by this bug.
