Segmentation fault on importing polyglot Text or Word

[punsiitg]

Hello,

I have python 2.7.12 anaconda distribution installed on Mac OS Sierra 10.2. I installed polyglot using pip install polyglot and installation worked fine. However, I come across segmentation fault when importing Text or Word from polyglot.text.

1. import polyglot ---- no error
2. from polyglot.text import Text ---- segmentation fault: 11

Can someone please help ?

As far as I could see, it is a problem with the used pycld2.
I located the problem by using the python builtin faulthandler in my script:

import faulthandler 
faulthandler.enable()

With this info, I found an open pull request where the last comment has helped:
