I am having same problem..
applied code:
conda update --all

[ccordoba12]

Thanks for reporting. We'll fix this in our next release.

In the meantime, please start Spyder from a terminal (xterm, konsole, etc) with the following command

LC_ALL=C spyder

That should be enough to workaround this bug until we fix it.

Thank You So much
