Segfault when used with tensorflow

[juve]

Thanks for working on these wheels. They are very useful.

On Debian Stretch with Python 3.6, I get a segfault if I try to import faiss before tensorflow, but not vice-versa.

This should reproduce the issue:

docker run --rm -it python:3.6-stretch bash
pip install faiss-cpu tensorflow
python -c "import faiss; import tensorflow" # segfaults
python -c "import tensorflow; import faiss" # works

The segfault only occurs with faiss-cpu, it does not occur with faiss-gpu.

@juve Thanks for reporting this. Likely conflict with a common dependency library (like glibc), where tensorflow is requiring newer version. faiss-gpu is distributed with manylinux2010 package and might be aligned with tensorflow's dependency, whereas faiss-cpu is manylinux1.

just uploaded manylinux2010 wheel packages for faiss-cpu
