Fastai v1 install issues thread

fastai

After making a conda update --all I get this error when loading from fastai import * in the lesson5-sgd-mnist.ipynb notebook:

~/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/spacy/compat.py in <module>
     32     from thinc.neural.optimizers import Optimizer
     33 except ImportError:
---> 34     from thinc.neural.optimizers import Adam as Optimizer
     35 
     36 pickle = pickle

ImportError: cannot import name 'Adam'

The error seems to come from Spacy/Thinc but those packages were not updated in the last conda update.

Those are my versions of those packages:

# Name    Version    Build  Channel
spacy     2.0.12     py36h6440ff4_0  
thinc     6.10.3     py36h6440ff4_0

I also found this GitHub issue thread with @Stas: https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/issues/2849

When I remove Spacy from the core.py the import works.

Kind regards
Michael
