  Hi,

  On the Linux Data Science VM (Ubuntu) image, as of a couple of days ago, `conda create` seems to be broken, producing the following error message (e.g. after `conda create --prefix=./myenv python=3.5` although I've tried many other arguments):

  ```

  CondaMultiError: RemoveError: 'requests' is a dependency of conda and cannot be removed from
  conda's operating environment.
  RemoveError: 'setuptools' is a dependency of conda and cannot be removed from
  conda's operating environment.

  ```

  conda --version gives me 4.6.14. I have an older VM, that I created from the DSVM image of some months ago, that claims conda version 4.5, where conda works fine, and believe this command was working as recently as last week.
