Hi,

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)
The dpkg listing below would say that you did not actually remove the
previous versions of 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
Seems there is more than one version of Spyder installed, where I
believe the /usr/bin is the apt-get installed version and /usr/local/bin
would be the source version.
* 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 :-(
Well you still not have said what version you are actually working with
when you do get it started:)
At this point I would uninstall any and all versions of Spyder and start
over. My suggestion would be to use pip to do the install. It is
becoming quite capable as a package manger.
Thanks for your time,
Roel
