Issues with istalling Keggdecoder.

[chrissy005]

Hello, I was attempting to install Keggdecoder and ran into the following issue. I understand that certain versions of python are not compatible. I am using Python 3.9. How can I resolve this?

python3 -m pip install KEGGDecoder Collecting KEGGDecoder Using cached KEGGDecoder-1.3-py2.py3-none-any.whl.metadata (560 bytes) Collecting matplotlib==3.0.3 (from KEGGDecoder) Using cached matplotlib-3.0.3.tar.gz (36.6 MB) Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... error error: subprocess-exited-with-error

Sorry for the fast trigger... Just browsing closed issues solved mine. See #44. I was using python 3.8 and a virtual environment. Using python 3.6 solved the problem.

I tried to download python 3.6 on my Mac but unable to find the compilation.

I guess then that your best option is to install miniconda in your mac and then follow this instructions: https://github.com/bjtully/BioData/blob/master/KEGGDecoder/README.md#installation
