[IPython-user] pydb and %run -d

[Lev Givon]

After recently installing pydb 1.22, I noticed that ipython would
attempt to use it rather than pdb when running a script via the magic
command %run -d. Shouldn't the %run command always use pdb regardless
of whether pydb is installed unless explicitly set to do so? I raise
this issue because %run -d appears to exhibit some problematic
behavior when it uses pydb rather than pdb (e.g., breakpoints
specified by the -bN flag are not properly set).

I am using ipython 0.8.1 with Python 2.5 on Linux.
