Segmentation Fault: neuralcoref==0.4.0 & spacy==2.1.4

[dmmiller612]

Hello, first of all, I wanted to mention that this is an awesome library. I am building a library around both this repository and your BERT implementations for extractive text summarization.

I recently noticed that I am getting a segmentation fault with spacy==2.1.4 and neuralcoref==0.4.0. I have tried this on ubuntu 18.04 and macOS. Spacy==2.1.3 seems to be working fine. The code below reproduces the issue.

import neuralcoref
from spacy.lang.en import English

nlp = English()
nlp.add_pipe(self.nlp.create_pipe('sentencizer'))
neuralcoref.add_to_pipe(nlp, greedyness=0.4)

I was going to take a look at this issue myself, but I wanted to make sure that you hadn't ran across something like this beforehand.

As an update, spacy 2.1.3 does not have an issue and works fine. I have only seen the issue in spacy==2.1.4

I think this is a duplicate of: #167

Neuralcoref (4.0 - from pip) works with 2.1.3 here.

[dmmiller612]

Yeah, I have had no issues with 2.1.3. Only 2.1.4.

[SrGrace]

Yeah, I created a new venv and then installed it with spacy==2.1.3. working fine!

I also was able to get it working using spacy==2.1.3

[thomwolf]

Yeah, this is a recurring problem.
I would like to be able to understand how we could keep the library in sync with SpaCy more easily.
I'll see if Matthew and Inès have some insights.

Recompilation from source after installing spacy was able to solve this problem for me, even on 2.1.6.
