Remove ipython mac os x

Question

I just installed the new ipython 0.11 on Mac OS X from sources. Unfortunately, it turned out that it lacks backward compatibility with previous versions, so all the scripts I need do not work. After that I installed the 0.10 version of ipython from macports, hoping that it will replace the current one (yes, maybe it was not a good idea - everything became even more complicated). But this is not the case, and my scripts are still using ipconon version 0.11

The only thing I need is to get my scripts to work. Therefore, I need to somehow remove iPython v.0.11 or make version 0.10 preferred for use

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

pip uninstall ipython can remove it.

Otherwise, you will have to find the files and delete them. At the online prompt, do:

 >>> import IPython >>> IPython 

Which should show you where it was imported from.

Answer 2

Remember to run pip as the root or:

  sudo pip uninstall ipython 

Without sudo, this did not work for me.
