UnsatisfiableError when installing from conda

[kodingkoning]

When I try to install using conda following the instructions in the README, I run into this error. How can I address this to be able to install?

Hi @kodingkoning Sorry for the inconvenience. You can install read2tree from the source using this instruction after creating a fresh environment

conda create -n read2t python=3.10.8 
conda activate read2t

Please let us know whether it works or not. Best regards, Sina.

The simplest way to fix that is using mambaforge instead of conda. Then you can use mamba install instead of conda install and that should work! You can download mambaforge here: https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge#mambaforge

Once I used mamba instead of conda in the fresh environment, I was able to install. Thanks for your help!
