Spacy import errors out Undefined Symbol

I've already asked to the developers on their GitHub issues page, but nothing is helping so far https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/issues/855

Created a new env with conda

conda create -n spacy python=3.5 ipython

and then install spacy (1.6.0) with pip (conda still has version 0.101.0)

pip install spacy

But I still get this error.

In [1]: import spacy

I did source the new conda environment and pip is the one from that new env. I'm running out of options here.

There is a similar issue here explosion/sense2vec#19 but that solution did not help.

Operating System: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS

Note, I don't have that problem on MacOS Sierra.

Update

I've exported my conda environment from MacOS (where it's working) and created a new one on the machine where it doesn't work. Same stack trace.

I saw on a sense2vec issues page https://github.com/explosion/sense2vec/issues/19 to do conda install libgcc and it worked for me.
