Conda/Mamba bioconda installation fails

[Giles Richard Greenway]

Installing via bioconda/mamba to ensure all dependencies are present:

git clone https://github.com/loosolab/TOBIAS.git
cd TOBIAS
mamba env create -f tobias_env.yaml
source activate TOBIAS_ENV
mamba install tobias -c bioconda

fails with the following error:

LibMambaUnsatisfiableError: Encountered problems while solving:
  - package tobias-0.15.1-py310hd6be1da_0 requires python >=3.10,<3.11.0a0, but none of the providers can be installed

However, trying to pin the Python version in tobias_env.yaml also fails, with errors regarding the appdirs package.

Hi @augeas,

unfortunately, I can not reproduce your error. However, from your error message, I gather that you are installing TOBIAS version 0.15.1. Our current version is 0.16.1. So please make sure that you are on the newest version.
If that doesn't fix the issue a workaround could be to install tobias using pip -> pip install tobias.

I hope I could help. Please let me know how it goes.

False alarm, though I had observed this locally and on our HPC cluster. mamba clean -a -y was enough to resolve this, but it's annoying that mamba remove --name TOBIAS_ENV --all wasn't enough...
