> actually ipython adt ignores the python3.4 test results as they fail anyway,
Ah, indeed. The test output doesn't say for which Python version it ran, so I just assumed it was for 3.4 as with 3.3 as the default it succeeds. In fact I can reproduce this on current trusty without the tests: sudo apt-get install python3.4 ipython3 With python3.3 (still the default Python), the warning does not appear: $ ipython3 [...] In [1]: quit() $ But if I run it with python3.4, the warning does appear: $ python3.4 /usr/bin/ipython3 [...] In [1]: quit() WARNING: help() not available - check site.py $ Curiously, help() *does* work with both 3.3 and 3.4, in python3.{3,4} (interactive shell) and ipython3 with python3.3 and 3.4. So that at least rules out an issue with the Debian autopkgtest (which is quite involved) and indeed shows that the issue is with ipython3 itself, so the test did find something real. At this point I don't know whether that's something due to the Debian packaging, or an upstream issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1272363 Title: test failures with python 3.4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ipython/+bug/1272363/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
