Adrian, I have no such entry in my menu. See the printscreen below.
<https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-jxV6DRA9G14/UvFd8dzVhyI/AAAAAAAAAr0/13hhKafMYwQ/s1600/spydermenu.png> And now it gets even worse: I restarted my computer between taking the screenshot and posting this reply, and I'm even not able to start spyder anymore by typing 'spyder' in a terminal, nor using the Ubuntu dash. I can still start spyder by typing python /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/spyder.py . I don't understand what's going on... roel On Tuesday, 4 February 2014 22:13:46 UTC+1, Adrian Klaver wrote: > > On 02/04/2014 12:30 PM, Roel De Coninck wrote: > > I have added the PPA Adrian suggested to my apt-get sources list, and > > updated ipython.
