回答1:

I think it's a bug in pathlib, and has nothing to do with spacy.

You can work around it, but it's ugly.

Edit line 1167 of C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pathlib.py. Comment it out.

Re-run python -m spacy download en

cd C:\python27\lib\site-packages

mklink /j spacy\data\en en_core_web_sm\en_core_web_sm-1.2.0
