[Solved] Spyder IDE startup bug

Dear Bugwanglers!

I am sorry to reach out to you by this way. I have no account on the bugtracker and I was not able to search it either.

Having an uptodate system I fail to start spyder.

$ spyder
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/spyder", line 8, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
             ~~~~^^
  File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/spyder/app/start.py", line 281, in main
    from spyder.app import mainwindow
  File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/spyder/app/mainwindow.py", line 61, in <module>
    from qtawesome import get_fonts_info
ImportError: cannot import name 'get_fonts_info' from 'qtawesome' (/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/qtawesome/__init__.py)

For now I switched back to the last working spyder package.

$ pacman -Q spyder
spyder 6.0.4-2

best regards
RausH

UPDATE: Thank you for fixing that bug. With the system update I did today this bug has been solved.

Just follow the instructions on how to get an account created: "Please write an email to accountsupport@archlinux.org, with your desired username, if you want to get access". It's not that hard.
