Hi, 

   - I tried to downgrade spyder by installing version 2.2.5, but then I 
   could not even start spyder with the 
   python /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/spyder.py command
   - I then tried to uninstall spyder completely (by deleting files 
   manually and eventually also apt-get remove spyder)
   - I reinstalled the 2.3beta3 from source: downloaded the .zip and sudo 
   python setup.py install in the unzipped spyder-2.3.0beta3 folder
   - Still the spyder command does nothing, but python 
   /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/spyder.py starts spyder again 
   (still without ipython console)

Now for your questions:

   - whereis spyder
   spyder: /usr/bin/spyder /usr/bin/X11/spyder /usr/local/bin/spyder 
   /usr/share/man/man1/spyder.1.gz
   - what do you mean with dist-packages start up?
   - I think my package manager shows nothing because now I installed 
   spyder with python setup.py install.  Below some outputs that may help?

I guess the dpkg results come from the apt-get install spyder I did earlier 
tonight. 

I don't mind to startup spyder with python 
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/spyder.py. 
 I can easily make an alias for this. But I still do not have any IPython 
console, so we're back to where we started :-(

Thanks for your time,
Roel
