Update bioconda deployment to Python3.7 #59

Open MatthewPorterGN opened 5 years ago

MatthewPorterGN commented 5 years ago

Hi,

We at GenomeNext enjoy using Anaconda to help manage packages, however I have noticed during an attempt to upgrade some of our systems to Python3.7 that bam-readcount interferes with our upgrade process. It looks like it has been built for Python 3.5 and 3.6 but not 3.7, the new Anaconda standard deployment version. Maybe this could be a relatively easy update to make?

Bam-readcount is still active, but we don't have a lot of bandwidth for support or maintenance at the moment. We didn't make the conda package for the software - looks like an end user did. Perhaps they'd be willing to update that code? https://github.com/bioconda/bioconda-recipes/pull/4816

The bioconda recipes is really quite simple to maintain, especially if you are a dev and know how to build your tool. I just discovered bam-count and now I'm not going to use it because it's not active on conda. So many people use conda for their env deps in projects, so you would only get a wider userbase by maintaining the recipe.
