mlissner, bear in mind that installing ipython doesn't replace the "python" command, but adds an "ipython" command instead. However, applications can optionally choose to embed ipython shells (when ipython is available) and otherwise fallback to regular python shell. This is what Django and Scrapy do.
It could still affect other applications that follow this behaviour, but it's not as critical as replacing a console command. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/662423 Title: Recommended packages are excessive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-scrapy/+bug/662423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
