Hi,
we would like to transition to ipython 5. The version currently in
Debian (2.4.1) includes a notebook and a qt console. These components
(at least the notebook functionality) were moved to the separate project
jupyter. Because of this, the old ipython is replaced by a bunch of
packages, which are currently in experimental:
ipython
ipykernel
jupyter_client
jupyter_core
nbconvert
nbformat
Some additional are currently being packaged:
ipywidgets ITP: #838684
jupyter-notebook ITP: #801366
widgetsnbextension ITP: #838683
There are two categories of ipython reverse dependencies: The ones that
depend only on ipython and/or ipython3, and the ones that also depend on
packages that do not exist anymore in this form in ipython 5,
ipython(3)-notebook and ipython(3)-qtconsole.
Below is a list of all these reverse dependencies. With the exception of
yade, I was able to build all the ones that have a reverse dependency
only on ipython(3) successfully against ipython 5.1.0-1.
It is clear that apart from yade, the dependencies on
ipython(3)-notebook and/or ipython(3)-qtconsole need special attention.
I would start by filing bugs against these packages to see what needs to
be done. They are:
glueviz, lmfit-py, plotly, sardana, vistrails, yade
The maintainer of lmfit-py and sardana already promised to take care of
these packages:

Would you say I should also file bugs against all the other affected
packages?
Here's the list of reverse dependencies, originating from dak:
