[Bug 887177] Re: upstream 2.1.1 is released
Unfortunately manually. Again because of Ubuntu vs Fedora update policy (Ubuntu freezes package until next release whereas Fedora works closer to upstream and is more keen on releasing minor updates), chances to get a backport update are very low. That's what PPA are made for. Again this is Ubuntu specific due to its release policy, whereas for Fedora I know spyder v2.1.6 is on updates-testing right now. So this is defintely not a bug, and the answers are: 1) either start a PPA for 11.10 and lower and push a request for update to the 2.1 series in next 12.04 (2.1.6 is in Debian sid right now so that should do) 2) or install from source as in post #4 3) or use Fedora where this package will be more up to date in the main repos Hope that helped. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887177 Title: upstream 2.1.1 is released To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spyder/+bug/887177/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

And how will people uninstall Spyder installed with this hack? Which development list are you referring to? I am writing this from Fedora system and I run Spyder from source - these two things prevent me from starting PPA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887177 Title: upstream 2.1.1 is released To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spyder/+bug/887177/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Building it from source is as easy as downloading the latest source tarball (2.1.7 is about to be released) and performing "sudo python setup.py install" in the extracted source directory. Since 11.10 is a point release, we will have to wait for the next 12.04 for getting this package updated. Perhaps should you already push your demand in the development mailing list as a feature request. Besides nothing prevents you from starting a PPA with an updated Spyder package for oneiric and below. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887177 Title: upstream 2.1.1 is released To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spyder/+bug/887177/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Why not to backport it?

[Bug 887177] Re: upstream 2.1.1 is released
This should rather be a question (see answers.launchpad.net) than a bug. I doubt that Spyder will be backported to 11.10 so you a) wait until 12.04 or b) try some manual update via external repo or Debian which always brings the risk of an unstable system and/or some conflicts. ** Changed in: spyder (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887177 Title: upstream 2.1.1 is released To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spyder/+bug/887177/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
