conda 4.2 cloning issues

[Charles Gagnon]

I was having issues with the older conda, I thought 4.2 would help so I updated with:

conda install -c conda-canary conda

Now I seem be to running the "lock" issue, similar to what's reported in:

https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/2960

https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/2778

https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/2681

Is there a package not updated or something I need to cleanup?

$ /usr/anaconda/bin/conda info
