Segmentation fault while importing sklearn

Question

When I try to import scikit-learn in python, I get a segmentation fault

>>>import sklearn as sk
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

How do I fix this? I am running python 2.7.11 on Fedora. I installed sklearn using pip I tried the same using Anaconda on a virtual environment, with the same results.

The same problem doesn't occur on Ubuntu 16, which I ended up installing and using for my purposes.

Answer 1

Do you have to use pip? Take a look at the anaconda method

conda install scikit-learn
