PyMC3 & Theano - Theano code that works stop working after pymc3 import

Some simple theano code that works perfectly, stop working when I import pymc3

Here some snipets in order to reproduce the error:

#Initial Theano Code (this works)    
import theano.tensor as tsr

x = tsr.dscalar('x')
y = tsr.dscalar('y')
z = x + y

#Snippet 1
import pymc3 as pm
import theano.tensor as tsr

x = tsr.dscalar('x')
y = tsr.dscalar('y')
z = x + y

#Snippet 2
import theano.tensor as tsr
import pymc3 as pm

x = tsr.dscalar('x')
y = tsr.dscalar('y')
z = x + y

#Snippet 3
import pymc3 as pm

x = pm.theano.tensor.dscalar('x')
y = pm.theano.tensor.dscalar('y')
z = x + y

And I get the following error for each of the previous snippets:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError                            Traceback (most recent call last)
/Users/tom/anaconda/lib/python3.4/site-packages/theano/gof/op.py in __call__(self, *inputs, **kwargs)
    516                 try:
--> 517                     storage_map[ins] = [self._get_test_value(ins)]
    518                     compute_map[ins] = [True]

    478 
--> 479         raise AttributeError('%s has no test value' % v)
    480 

AttributeError: x has no test value

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    524                     elif config.compute_test_value == 'raise':
--> 525                         raise ValueError('Cannot compute test value: input %i (%s) of Op %s missing default value' % (i, ins, node))
    526                     elif config.compute_test_value == 'ignore':
    527                         # silently skip test

ValueError: Cannot compute test value: input 0 (x) of Op Elemwise{add,no_inplace}(x, y) missing default value

Any Ideas ? Thanks in advance

Solution proposed here lasts a bit longer than setting the flag. In your shell type:

theano-cache purge

I think this is related to pymc3 setting theano.config.compute_test_value = 'raise': https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc3/blob/master/pymc3/model.py#L395

You can explicitly set theano.config.compute_test_value back to 'ignore' to get rid of the error.
