Hello,
I am trying to install MAJIQ using Python 3.12, following the official instructions from the MAJIQ repository .

During the installation, I keep encountering the following errors:

AssertionError: Metadata mismatch in METADATA WARNING: Built wheel for rna_voila is invalid: Wheel has unexpected file name: expected '3.0.5.dev1+g7a5ff444', got '3.0.5.dev1+g7a5ff444.d20250717' ERROR: Failed building wheel for rna_moccasin

I’ve already verified all system dependencies (HTSlib, zlib, OpenMP, GCC), and everything is correctly installed.

Can you please suggest a solution or workaround?
Thank you.

Majkena

Hi Majkena,

May you try to delete the existing python3.12 venv and making a new one to follow the commands again? Can you post the exact command/output that lead up to this error?

Thanks,

-San
