pip installation doesn't work

Hi,

I am having the following error when installing the tool:

$pip install git+https://github.com/a-slide/pycoQC.git

I run it on my HPC cluster, inside the conda environment. I installed it as you describe in the installation instructions here. Do you have any suggestions?

I tried the following but it doesn't work

export LC_ALL=C
$pip install git+https://github.com/a-slide/pycoQC.git

Thank you in advance
