Hi,

After installing a package from 

!pip install   gitlink

I got the list of packages from WinPython Package manager completely erased (pip issues).

Wondering how to restore the list of package without re-installing WinPython.


Thanks
Kind regards

which version of WinPython ?
what happen if:
- you reboot,
- then you launch 'WinPython Command Prompt" and type "pip list" ?

WinPython 2.7 (64bits).

With the command, I have th fulle list of package:
D:\_devs\Python01\WinPython-64-2710\python-2.7.10.amd64>pip list
You are using pip version 7.1.0, however version 8.0.2 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.
adodbapi (2.6.0.7)
alabaster (0.7.6)
astroid (1.3.6)
Babel (1.3)
backports.ssl-match-hostname (3.4.0.2)
baresql (0.7.1)
bcolz (0.10.0)
beautifulsoup4 (4.4.0)


But, in GUI winPython package, I cannot see it....

Hi again,

The "WinPython Control Panel" Interface is not so "obvious":
- it shows by default on opening the "Install/Upgrade" panel,
- you have to click on the "Un-install" panel to see the installed packages.

Is that the explanation ? (as I don't have any other)

....Obivously, the question is:

    In Un-install tab of Control panel, the list is blank.....

How can I get back the list in that panel ?

(Command line shows the packages).

suggestions:
- please precise on your exact version of WinPython and Operating system,
- start a qtconsole and checks it display something:
  - if not you're looking like https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/1147
  - if yes, install another WinPython somewhere else on your PC and checks if it has also the problem,
- script on WinPython Package manager to get the package list is this:

import imp, pip; pip.utils.pkg_resources = imp.reload(pip.utils.pkg_resources); pip_list = [(i.key, i.version)   for i in pip.get_installed_distributions()]
print(pip_list)

==> please try it in a IDLE session, to check it works and shows packages

- try beginning install a package via WinPython Package manager, just to check that the proposed package appears in the window
- try !pip uninstall gitlink
- try disconnect all your monitors and put your default screen in simple HD definition.
- try guidata, guiqwt, PyQtgraph examples.

You have the same mysterious "no show" effect as issue 1147, for my distant point of view, so I suspect you have something particular and similar:
- very high pc config ? (and qt doesn't like 4K or more than 16Go ram ?)
- .NET stack ? visual studio ?
- some other "with-qt" made application ? cuda ?

hi,

here below:

1)>>> print(pip_list)
[('adodbapi', '2.6.0.7'), ('alabaster', '0.7.6'), ('astroid', '1.4.1'), ('astroml', '0.3'), ('babel', '2.1.1'), ('backports-abc', '0.4'), ('baresql', '0.7.3'), ('bcolz', '0.12.1'), ('beautifulsoup4', '4.4.1'), ('blaze', '0.8.3'), ('blosc', '1.2.8'), ('bloscpack', '0.9.0'), ('bokeh', '0.10.0'), ('bottleneck', '1.0.0'), ('bqplot', '0.5.0'), ('brewer2mpl', '1.4.1'), ('castra', '0.1.6'), ('certifi', '2015.11.20.1'), ('cffi',


2) WinPython-64bit-3.4.3.7.exe
WinPython-64bit-2.7.10.2.exe

Win 7 Home, 12Go, CUDA installed + VStudio 13


3) The List disapears only when I installed some packages....
    Initially, I have it....

    I tried to install pycuda and some package using gcc compiling... (so it happens a lot)

thanks very much
