The following crashes with the error:
! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item.
\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage[francais]{babel}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\begin{document}
\begin{itemize}[topsep=20pt]
\item item1
\item item2
\end{itemize}
\end{document}
Works ok with english babel. I tried the option loadonly like in enumitem conflicts with galician but without success. Crashes also with french babel.
I found a workaround:
use
\begin{enumerate}[topsep=20pt,label=--]
instead of
\begin{itemize}[topsep=20pt]
