Hello, I know that the current state of the spyder stack is quite unstable :((

Can you test this with the version available into unstable 2.3.8. And gives me 
your feedback.

The problem is that spyder > 2.3.5 changed by default the PyQt API#1 -> #2 and 
it broke a bunch of dependencies.
This is why I blocked the upgrade into testing.

- Another problem is that spyder will require ipython >3 which is not available 
in Debian for now.

- another problem is the removal of qtwebkit in the qt4 stack.

This require  a migration to the 3.X series or the switch to PyQt5 of spyder.

I can not garanti when this will be available into Debian testing AND unstable 
for now.

So can you test the latest version and if it does not solve your problem, you 
should considere reverting to the stable version of Debian.

Cheers

PS: Staying with Debian stable is always better in production except if you are 
preparing the next stable :)
