@conda-forge/help-python @conda-forge/help-python-c any thoughts?

Thanks for doing all of that,

I think the last few imports of distutils can be removed, I have no clue what they are doing but the final tgz/wheel are quasi identical, so maybe worth trying ?

[bollwyvl]

I meant to dig into this up some more, but see that https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/13423 has already gone through. I can wait to test a future beta, if we think that's forthcoming, or i can keep poking at it (don't have a ppc machine/docker/vm approach around :blush: ).

[bollwyvl]

@conda-forge/ipython any regrets about merging this? it seems like we actually shed a lot of test skips, so i feel pretty good about it, overall.

[bollwyvl]

With no thundering dissent, i'll go ahead and merge this.
