|
8 | IPython 0.10.2 was released April 9, 2011. This is a minor bugfix release that | |||
|
9 | preserves backward compatibility. At this point, all IPython development | |||
|
10 | resources are focused on the 0.11 series that includes a complete architectural | |||
|
11 | restructuring of the project as well as many new capabilities, so this is | |||
|
12 | likely to be the last release of the 0.10.x series. We have tried to fix all | |||
|
13 | major bugs in this series so that it remains a viable platform for those not | |||
|
14 | ready yet to transition to the 0.11 and newer codebase (since that will require | |||
|
15 | some porting effort, as a number of APIs have changed). | |||
|
16 | ||||
|
17 | Thus, we are not opening a 0.10.3 active development branch yet, but if the | |||
|
18 | user community requires new patches and is willing to maintain/release such a | |||
|
19 | branch, we'll be happy to host it on the IPython github repositories. | |||
|
20 | ||||
|
21 | Highlights of this release: | |||
|
22 | ||||
|
23 | - The main one is the closing of github ticket #185, a major regression we had | |||
|
24 | in 0.10.1 where pylab mode with GTK (or gthread) was not working correctly, | |||
|
25 | hence plots were blocking with GTK. Since this is the default matplotlib | |||
|
26 | backend on Unix systems, this was a major annoyance for many users. Many | |||
|
27 | thanks to Paul Ivanov for helping resolve this issue. | |||
|
28 | ||||
|
29 | - Fix IOError bug on Windows when used with -gthread. | |||
|
30 | - Work robustly if $HOME is missing from environment. | |||
|
31 | - Better POSIX support in ssh scripts (remove bash-specific idioms). | |||
|
32 | - Improved support for non-ascii characters in log files. | |||
|
33 | - Work correctly in environments where GTK can be imported but not started | |||
|
34 | (such as a linux text console without X11). | |||
|
