DIAMOND 2.0.4: "DIAMOND failed to generate output"

[RolandWirth]

Dear Developers,

Binette seems to be a useful program. However, with newer versions of Conda and Python, DIAMOND 2.0.4 does not work. The program needs to be upgraded to version 2.1.8 or newer. See: chklovski/CheckM2#100. Unfortunately, it is not possible to manually replace or upgrade DIAMOND in Binette, as all dependent programs are also deleted by the conda install --force-reinstall diamond=2.1.8 command. You may want to upgrade to a newer version of CheckM2 if it is released (which will include the newer DIAMOND).

conda version: 23.3.1
mamba version: 1.4.2
Python version: 3.8.19

Hi @RolandWirth,

Thanks for pointing out the dependency issue. Binette relies heavily on CheckM2, so we're tied to its dependencies.
We'll keep an eye on CheckM2 and update Binette once they've fixed the problem.

Best
