Spyder says about itself that it has
...the support of IPython (enhanced interactive Python interpreter) and
popular Python libraries such as NumPy (linear algebra), SciPy (signal
and image processing) or matplotlib (interactive 2D/3D plotting).
So I think having those available as default is a the right thing to to.
(We can easily make a stripped down spyder expression if needed later.)
I've added the list of recommended and optional dependencies as
described here:

Spyder (previously known as Pydee) is a powerful interactive development
environment for the Python language with advanced editing, interactive
testing, debugging and introspection features.
The name Spyder comes from Scientific PYthon Development EnviRonment.
stlink is an in-circuit debugging and programming tool for ST-Link v1
and v2 devices. It is similar to OpenOCD but just for ST-Link devices.
https://github.com/texane/stlink
IMPORTANT: You need permissions to access the stlink usb devices. Here
are example udev rules for stlink v1 and v2 so you don't need to have
root permissions (copied from <stlink>/49-stlink*.rules):
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3744", MODE:="0666", SYMLINK+="stlinkv1_%n"
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3748", MODE:="0666", SYMLINK+="stlinkv2_%n"
The recent sqlite update broke -- among other things -- the Hydra regression
test suite. Until these issues have been resolved, we stick to the older
reliable version.
- Add version 3.7.14.1 again, so that we can work around issues caused
by the recent 3.7.16.1 update.
- Drop obsolete version 3.6.x.
- Consistently use the sqlite version number to name the file of the
expression.
This reverts commit a2ddd3643e.
@peti pointed out that python2.6 packages are now prefered over
python2.7. In a local test it was the other way round. seems to be
arbitrary or I messed up the test.
for `nix-env -i` the later defined python27Packages seems to win.
Another solution might be to have python26 oder python27 either in the
name or the version. Let's have a look at haskelPackages for that.
It works enough to display bootsplash animations in an xorg session and a VT.
I haven't figured out how to run it successfully from the initrd yet and I'm also not happy with the postInstall mess, but I'd rather merge it now than let it get lost. It seems like it should be possible for a user to activate it by using boot.initrd.extraUtilsCommands and boot.initrd.postMountCommands
