Same thing here with Debian Buster, I put ~/.local/bin in my PATH and it works well. So, after installing ipython with pip install ipython command, add this line to your ~/.profile :

export PATH="$PATH:~/.local/bin/"

You might need to source your .profile first, I didn't.

Install globally if you're a beginner, fewer chances for mistakes.

sudo pip3 install ipython3
