I have installed spyder 4 on my kubuntu but when I try to launch it, it doesn't start and in the konsole, I got this :

File "/usr/bin/spyder", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('spyder==4.2.1', 'gui_scripts', 'spyder')())
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/app/start.py", line 213, in main
    mainwindow.main(options, args)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/app/mainwindow.py", line 3624, in main
    mainwindow = create_window(app, splash, options, args)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/app/mainwindow.py", line 3482, in create_window
    main.setup()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/app/mainwindow.py", line 803, in setup
    self.completions = CompletionManager(self)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/plugins/completion/plugin.py", line 97, in __init__
    plugin_client = Plugin(self.main)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/plugins/completion/kite/plugin.py", line 50, in __init__
    self.installer = KiteInstallerDialog(
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/plugins/completion/kite/widgets/install.py", line 287, in __init__
    self._integration_widget = KiteIntegrationInfo(self)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/spyder/plugins/completion/kite/widgets/install.py", line 58, in __init__
    image = image.scaled(image_width, image_height, Qt.KeepAspectRatio,
TypeError: arguments did not match any overloaded call:
  scaled(self, int, int, aspectRatioMode: Qt.AspectRatioMode = Qt.IgnoreAspectRatio, transformMode: Qt.TransformationMode = Qt.FastTransformation): argument 1 has unexpected type 'float'
  scaled(self, QSize, aspectRatioMode: Qt.AspectRatioMode = Qt.IgnoreAspectRatio, transformMode: Qt.TransformationMode = Qt.FastTransformation): argument 1 has unexpected type 'float'

Any idea on what's happening ?

I'm new to ubuntu so I really don't have a clue...

Thanks in advance !!

It appears to be this bug, https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/18919, for which that issue provides a solution; the error being in a bad package?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
