Hi mkazanov, I also meet the same issue. Did you solve this problem? How do you solve it?

Hi MeteorLiu96,

No, still waiting for answer from developers of this package. I am on Mac and my OS is Sonoma 14.1 I am going try to install on Windows. I let you know if it successful or not.

Hi @mkazanov,

Thank you for reaching out and apologies for the late response.

Could you please let me know what version of Python you are using and how are you installing the SigProfilerClusters tool? My suggestion will be to create a new conda environment with Python version 3.8 to 3.10(conda create -n test python=3.10) and then try to re-install the SigProfilerClusters pipeline. Please let me know if that does not work.

Best, Mousumy

Hi all, I solved this issue. I thought the reason is the access to this website (http://www.qhull.org/) was banned by my internet. I also tried to open this website by browser, it also failed. When I switched to another internet supplier which could access this website, it successfully installed.

Hi all,

If you encounter any further problems with the installation of the tool, please feel free to reopen the issue.

Thanks! Mousumy
