"Spyder update" message box cannot be interacted with

Description

The “Spyder updates” message box which informs about new versions (currently 3.0.2) cannot be interacted with:

• cannot click the “Release” link
• cannot click the “Installation Instructions” link
• cannot click the “OK” button
• can only close the box with “X” box will reappear on each restart

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Restart spyder (with new version available)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Interaction should work, or the box chould only appear once at least.

Please provide any additional information below

I’ve had this problem with 3.0.0->3.0.1 before and “solved” it via update.
