Somehow Kai's answer bounced from the list, it may help too so here it is:

An exit code of 127 occurs when a required command is not found in your
$PATH. In this case you are trying to compile SciPy using g++.

I suspect this occurs because g++ is either not installed in which case you
will need to install it (in Ubuntu you can install these using ``apt
install g++``, this may require sudo). If it is already installed it may be
that miniconda does not find g++ as expected.

Cheers,
Ralf
