Hello Tiago,
I’ve aped my way through a few install iterations, didn’t have any luck with compiling, however the conda installation in my working venv no longer crashes the python console with exit 127 code! 
Now, the same gist yields an AttributeError:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "~/miniconda3/envs/mne/lib/python3.7/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py", line 3331, in run_code
    exec(code_obj, self.user_global_ns, self.user_ns)
  File "<ipython-input-10-e39c37064277>", line 1, in <module>
    graph_tool.draw.graph_draw(g, vertex_text=g.vertex_index, vertex_font_size=18,
AttributeError: module 'graph_tool.draw' has no attribute 'graph_draw'

Thanks for the help.

If you used the ubuntu package, the library was installed in the
system's Python environment. The missing symbol is probably due to your
anaconda environment having different library versions. If you want to
use anaconda, you should install graph-tool from there, otherwise this
kind of mismatch is bound to happen.

If you want help with compilation, you need to provide more information,
including the entire contents of the config.log file, as well as the
entire output of the configure command, together with the entire error
messages, not only snippets.

Best,
Tiago
