Hi,

I am not a developer here, but I don't think that is intended behaviour.
On other platforms, such as mine, it works as expected (no need to wrap
it in show()). As Monte mentioned, maybe this is an issue related to the
Debian/Ubuntu package? I don't know if it will help, but you could try
to run spyder from source

Yeah... I've been kicking this idea around, but not sure I want to commit just yet - mainly because I'm normally a fan of using the package manager on systems like this as much as possible. Kind of a six one way, half-dozen the other dilemmas as far as which one is more frustration - dealing with out-of-date semi-broken version supported by the system package manager, or compiling from source and having to hunt down dependencies manually and pin packages at specific versions to support the same. I haven't tried it for spyder, so it may be a lot less painful than that... but BTDT in the past.

FWIW... I wonder if part of the problem ties back to the fact that spyder (2.1.10 in this case) has problems with recognizing the ipython installation. If I set the option in the preferences to start an ipython kernel at startup I get all sorts of errors/warnings in the internal console log... and several of the ipython option check boxes are greyed out, including starting an ipython interpreter console at startup - citing the reason as that it (spyder) can't find a version of ipython >= 0.10 installed on the computer in question. Odd, since it'll let me manually open an ipython interpreter from the console window menu, and ipython is clearly @ 0.13 release version on this machine.
