[Python-modules-team] Bug#803715: python variables not reachable as environment variables

[Kai Lüke]

Package: ipython3
Version: 2.3.0-2

An recent update of some other component seems to break passing of python variables to the environment of a shell command.

When invoking ipython we see that it is working as expected:

In [1]: var = "env"
In [2]: !echo $var is env
env is env


Behaviour when invoking ipython3:

In [1]: var = "env"
In [2]: !echo $var is env
is env
