glam2 python 3 support

[Hendrik Schultheis]

Hi,

I was delighted when I saw that your new version (5.1.1) has python 3 support.

So I installed it and tried to run glam2, which gave me the following Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/hschult/.conda/motif/libexec/meme-5.1.1/glam2html", line 87, in <module>
    assert len(alignments) > 0
AssertionError
Program glam2html exited with value 1
Warning: failed to convert output to HTML!

So it seems that there are for some reason no alignments?

The rest of glam2s output is as expected.

I tried to narrow it down by running the same with python 2.7 and there were no problems.

Is glam2 not supporting python 3?

Hi Hendrik,

Did you have to re-install the software for it to run with python 2.7? If yes, did you use the option --with-python=/your/path/to/python2.7 alongside ./configure ?

Hi Karan,

Thanks for your answer.

I'm using conda so I created a new environment with python 2.7 and meme. In other words no re-install but rather a second independent parallel installation if that makes sense.
