New description:

 py-spyder and all required dependencies installed with no errors. The
 application starts up, gets to the main screen and then immediately
 crashes with the following error:

 {{{
 [1285:79363:0409/203241.695764:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(919)]
 The display compositor is frequently crashing. Goodbye.
 Trace/BPT trap: 5
 }}}

 From what I've read, it looks like it might be related to chromium but I'm
 really quite out of my depth after that. Be most grateful for any help or
 guidance.
