Bug#686604: unblock (pre-approval): ipython 0.13.1



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Hi,
ipython upstream is going to release a bugfix only release soon which
fixes a couple important and many minor bugs. I would like to have this
release in wheezy if you allow it.
Attached a debdiff of the current 0.13.1 branch which is likely not
going change much until the release.

The fixed issues are documented on
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/commits/0.13.1 until commit
6ecadfa3e8 (version 0.13.1dev)
For your convenience patch log (git log -p 6ecadfa3e8..) is also attached.

The most important fixes concern running parallel computing clusters in
non trivial cases.
The relevant issues are these:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/2280
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/2214
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/2126
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/2163
If the whole update would rejected I still want to backport those fixes
to wheezy.
But considering the simplicity of most fixes I really hope you approve
the whole update.

The debian packaging also has a couple minor fixes including #685986,
#685985 and the reappeared in different form #683108.
The packaging is of course not final and can be adapted to your wishes.

When the final release is done I will ping you again with the changes
since this request.

Cheers,
Julian Taylor
