I have added the PPA Adrian suggested to my apt-get sources list, and

apt-get solution over pip because I use apt-get to manage updates of all
installed software.  Maybe the same is possible with pip but I didn't
try yet.

Anyway, I still do not get a menu entry to start an ipython interpreter
in Spyder.  In the Tools/Preferences/Console/Advanced settings, when I
change the path to the default python interpreter to /usr/bin/ipython,
the resulting console does not startup correctly.  However, starting
ipython from a terminal works perfectly.

Just leave the console setting at the default. You can then have two consoles available, the regular python one and ipython. Make sure you go to the View-->Windows menu item and check the IPython item so it will appear.


Is there something else I'm missing?  Should I try to update (or
downgrade) Spyder?  (version now is 2.3.0beta3)

I am and have been using 2.3x with IPython 1.0/1.1 with no issues, so I would say stay the course.


Thanks,
Roel
