Install errors rna-majiq-meta

[brown.a...@gmail.com]

Hello,

since trying yesterday I am completely unable to install MAJIQ

I have tried doing it with a virtual env, with a conda environment with python 3.8, but I always get some errors along the lines of

pip3 install git+https://bitbucket.org/biociphers/majiq_academic.git#egg=majiq
WARNING: Generating metadata for package majiq produced metadata for project name rna-majiq-meta. Fix your #egg=majiq fragments.

Hello,

This is a new report, which version of python and pip are you using?

What happens if you try only "pip3 install git+https://bitbucket.org/biociphers/majiq_academic.git"  without the "egg=" part?

Thanks,

I am also trying this, and among other errors, I am getting: 

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement rna-majiq (unavailable) (from rna-majiq-meta) (from versions: 0.0.1)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for rna-majiq (unavailable) 

It looks like someone changed a string somewhere and the installation broke. 

Thank you, 
Laura

Hi Laura,

I have seen this issue come up with one other party where the version with "egg=majiq" was run, and then another attempt was performed without this suffix into the environment where it was used before. I have removed this suffix from the online installation instructions. I would recommend that you try to delete the virtual environment and create a new one and then try to install once more with the corrected command.

If you still have issues after this please post your exact python and pip versions, and I will try to reproduce the error on my side.

Thanks!
