Hi,

Trying to update devel/py-jupyter_console and devel/py-qtconsole, I found that I need ipython 7.x and ipykernel 5.x. I already created devel/py-prompt_toolkit2 since prompt_toolkit 2.x is incompatible with 1.x.

Should I commit separate ports for devel/ipython7 and devel/py-ipykernel5 or do you have plans to update devel/ipython and devel/py-ipykernel? Note I already have devel/ipython7 and devel/py-ipykernel5 tested and working locally. But I thought we may prefer to just update rather than keep so many versions around. What's your preference?

Thanks,
Steve

devel/ipython is py3x only, so it's safe to update it to 7.x. We also have devel/ipython5 for py2x users.

As for jupyter update, I personally think that if upstream switched to python 3, we should do the same. But all the 2.x-only dependencies of ipython should be somehow fixed. If somebody embeds system-wide installed ipython into their 2.x application instead of using virtualenv, it's not the ports maintainers problem IMHO.
