IPython console can't locate “backports.shutil_get_terminal_size” and won't load

Question

I\'m running Python2.7 on windows 10 doing env and most pkg management with Anaconda. After upgrading a number of packages, my ipython console now fails to start in any IDE

Answer 1

• Works for Anaconda Python version Anaconda2-4.2.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
• Edit the file and get rid the "try" and "except" import statements
• Add in the new import statement
• Update config parser => ./conda install configparser

• Install nbbrowserpdf => .pip install nbbrowserpdf

  vim +22 /home/alienone/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/IPython/utils/terminal.py

  from backports import shutil_get_terminal_size as _get_terminal_size
