Hi guys, I'm having some issues installing Spyder through pip3. I'm
running Ubuntu 14.04, and apt-get has an outdated version
<https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spyder> of Spyder (2.3.0) which
works appropriately and is installed like this:

|
sudo apt-getinstall spyder3
|

I uninstalled this version and successfully installed Spyder 2.3.4 via
pip3, along with most of the other recommended packages. However, unlike
the one installed via apt-get, this version of Spyder fails to find
PyQt4. I tried running it after installing the PyQt4 package via apt-get
(python-qt4) and then, by using the binary in the official website
<http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download>, but both
approaches failed.


After failing with PyQt4, I installed PySide 1.2.2 from pip3, but
running Spyder afterwards gives me the following error:

/libpyside.cpython-34m.so.1.2: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory/.

Then, with Spyder 2.3.0 installed, I used

|
sudo pip3 install --upgrade spyder
|

to see if I could upgrade the distribution I had installed via apt-get
(bad idea, I know, but bear with me). Even though pip3 said it had
uninstalled Spyder 2.3.0 and installed 2.3.4, when I open Spyder and go
to the "About" section, I'm still using version 2.3.0.

Can someone lend me a hand?

Questions:

1) What versions of Python do you have installed?

2) What does:

dpkg -l | grep -i pyqt

show?

3) What does:

pip freeze | grep -i Spyder

show?

Comments:

1) Stick with PyQt. PySide is just an exercise  in pain.

2) In Spyder go to Help-->Report Issue and click on it. It will take you to the issues Web page, but in the issue will be a report like this:
