When typing a function name and opening the parenthesis, or the function name with a ?, ipython usually show the function docstring but with this particular version, it is broken, making it much less useful.
Given this is an "old" version (ipython is already at version 8.15), and there is very little chance our users will receive this version when updating, I don't plan on doing anything to fix it. I will only create and close this issue immediately in case it bites me back some day.
