Hi,
After installing drop version 1.3.3 with mamba I'm getting the following error:

The output for which python and which snakemake are:

/home/ubuntu/miniconda3/envs/drop_env_v1.3.3/bin/python
/home/ubuntu/miniconda3/envs/drop_env_v1.3.3/bin/snakemake

The python version is 3.12.1 and snakemake is 8.0.1. I do not have snakemake installed in my base environment.

Hi there,

Wondering if this is a mamba issue. Please see #509 and try the solution mentioned there by installing using the yml file. This is also detailed in the README. In the meantime I will look into potential issues with using mamba

Hi @sgomes-catarina, were you able to check this?

[AtaJadidAhari]

Hi @sgomes-catarina, any updates on this? I believe the issue is resolved in DROP v1.3.4 and later versions, since we restricted snakemake version to be < 8.0.0
