Spyder launch issue after installation of Anaconda 5.2 on Linux Ubuntu 18.04

MichaelAllen1966 commented 6 years ago

Hello

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 and a fresh install of Anaconda 5.2.

On both a Dell XPS13 and HP Elite book (both with fresh installs of Ubuntu and Anaconda) I get a failure to launch Spyder. When launching from terminal I get an error message "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".

I get this problem before trying to install any other packages.

Thank you! I still love Anaconda :)

Following a suggestion on a thread on another post with the same problem, the problem was fixed with ....

conda install pyopengl

That made the following changes:

The following NEW packages will be INSTALLED:

freeglut: 2.8.1-0              
pyopengl: 3.1.1a1-np113py36_0

The following packages will be REMOVED:

anaconda: 5.2.0-py36_3

The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:

numpy:    1.14.3-py36hcd700cb_1 --> 1.13.3-py36hdbf6ddf_4
