[FIXED] Install Spyder with python 3 on Raspberry Pi

Issue

As python 2 is reaching end of live very soon, I'm looking for a way to get a usable IDE with python 3 on my raspberry pi (using Raspbian buster). I managed to install Miniconda bundled with python 3 but seem to be unable to install spyder in any environment due to unsolvable package conflicts. I can install spyder using apt-get, which points to an old version with python 2.7. My last resort was installing spyder-kernels inside my conda envs, but this seems to be impossible due to a conflict with jupyter-client. Did anyone manage to get spyder with python 3 on a raspberry?

Solution

(Spyder maintainer here) To install the Python 3 version of Spyder you need to execute the following command in a terminal

sudo apt-get install spyder3
