Install error

Open Neo-xbx-00 opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

I face a problem like this: conda create -n liftoff -c bioconda liftoff -y Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source. Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done Solving environment: \ Found conflicts! Looking for incompatible packages. This can take several minutes. Press CTRL-C to abort. failed

UnsatisfiableError: I also try downloading from source but also failed.

OK, I have succeed. If other people face the same issues like me, I'd like to share my experience with you. So simple... Just make a new environment with python (I chose the newest version to date, 3.11), and install liftoff from source, that means you should first "git clone..." and run "python setup.py install..."

I just wanted to second that I, too, am having the same error. It also fails to install using mamba, throwing the error,

Could not solve for environment specs
The following package could not be installed
└─ liftoff is not installable because it requires
   └─ biopython >=1.76 , which conflicts with any installable versions previously reported.

The solution Neo-xbx suggested worked for me, but it would be nice for the conda install process to be fixed, too (if only for convenience).

Had the same issue as @FrostFlow13 . Following the instructions of @Neo-xbx-00, "pip install ." after git clone and cd'ing into the Liftoff directory also works..
