coronavirus taxonkit

[KenSaville]

Hi

When working through the coronavirus chapter, taxonkit wasn't installed. There is a link in the text that says bio: software package may need to be updated but it wasn't clear how to do that.

I installed taxonkit using conda install -c bioconda taxonkit

then I needed to download taxdump.tar.gz, unpack it and copy it into the proper place.

after that it worked fine. But did I miss a step where taxonkit was insatlled via the handbook instructions?

Thanks

Ken

Thanks for the note, it was an oversight,

pleased to see that you figured it out.
