The ipython package carries two programs: /usr/bin/ipython-wx /usr/bin/ipythonx that require wxPython to be installed. Since wxPython is not required when installing ipython it could happen (it happened to me and thus this report) that any of the above interfaces does not work correctly. Eventually, if necessary, both programs could be placed in a subpackage without burdening the whole package with the dependency on wxpython.
To be honest, I don't think that would work well… wx seems to be in many places, and excluding just these two, could get ipython to crash anyway. I'll to that for now, till someone has a crash to work on. For now it's just a too big dependency to add wxpython as a main requires...
ipython-0.9.1-4.fc11 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 11. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ipython-0.9.1-4.fc11
ipython-0.9.1-4.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update ipython'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ipython-0.9.1-4.fc11
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
The subpackage is there, but the Requires: on wxpython still need to be added.
*** Bug 558129 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Thanks, there is just wxpython mentioned in the description :( I'll add this soon and will push out together with #603178.
