Problem Description
I use a non-default python interpreter in spyder.
I can execute the python program normally. But when I try to debug the code, spyder’s debug buttons are not responding except the “Debug file” button (I have set breakpoints).
And the IPython console has always been like this: IPython console

@ccordoba12 yes, it works after I update spyder to 4.1.4 and update spyder-kernels in another virtual environment to 1.9.2. Thank you for your help ! @ccordoba12 @goanpeca @impact27
No problem. Glad to know this bug is already fixed.
