[IPython-dev] IPython 5.0 and ConfigManager issue

Hi there,

This is not working for me:

from IPython.html.services.config import ConfigManagerfrom
IPython.utils.path import locate_profilecm =
ConfigManager(profile_dir=locate_profile(get_ipython().profile))cm.update('livereveal',
{
              'theme': 'serif',
              'transition': 'zoom',
              'start_slideshow_at': 'selected',})

TraitError: The 'parent' trait of a ConfigManager instance must be a
Configurable, but a value of class 'NoneType' (i.e. None) was
specified.

It looks like IPY 5 changed the way it handles the configuration?

I have these warning in my prompt:

/sw/lib/python3.5/site-packages/IPython/utils/traitlets.py:5: UserWarning:
IPython.utils.traitlets has moved to a top-level traitlets package.

  warn("IPython.utils.traitlets has moved to a top-level traitlets
package.")

/sw/lib/python3.5/site-packages/IPython/utils/path.py:283: UserWarning:
locate_profile has moved to the IPython.paths module

  warn("locate_profile has moved to the IPython.paths module")

But I don't know how to fix it. I am using ipython/jupyter + RISE and I
want to customise my presentations.

Thanks,

Alan
