Re: [spyder] Re: Spyder3 - QTConsole errors with every command entered

2016-10-20 Thread Carlos Córdoba
Ok, I don't understand how this error is generated but we can fix it by 
inserting the line that gives the error in a try/except block.


I'll do that for 3.0.2, to be released next week :-)


Cheers,
Carlos

A few items from 'conda list':

[spyder] Re: [ANN] Spyder 3.0.1 is released!

2016-10-20 Thread Jack
The version of spyder in conda is still 3.0.0, so you have to update Spyder 
through pip.

I used pip to update to Spyder 3.0.1 in this morning and had some little 
problem in update sphinx to version 1.4.8

My solution is to update sphinx through conda first

conda update sphinx

and then update Spyder through pip

pip install -U spyder

maybe you can try it
