I am using Emacs 27.2 on up-to-date Fedora 34 and I installed Elpy from, as I recall, melpa. Python version (in /usr/bin/python
) is 3.9.7. I am trying to use C-c C-d
to access Python documentation. This works for built-in functions such as print()
, but I cannot access any documentation for imported packages such as numpy
this way. pydoc numpy
works perfectly well in my terminal outside of Emacs, though.
The background process elpy-rpc
is using the correct executable, but I have been unable to find any other relevant information as to why this is not working. I would prefer to use Pydoc rather than another package or system for documentation if possible, though I do not know how other systems (jedi?) work, so I am open to all suggestions.
