The Scala kernel crashes on load with the following stack trace from jupyter:

I am using miniconda in a clean Python 3.7 environment. I get this error whether I install beakerx_all or just beakerx_kernel_scala. Below are the versions installed when I installed just beakerx_kernel_scala

The following NEW packages will be INSTALLED:

beakerx_kernel_sc~ beakerx/linux-64::beakerx_kernel_scala-2.0.0-py37_1
openjdk pkgs/main/linux-64::openjdk-8.0.152-h7b6447c_3
