tbl2asn no longer available - replaced with table2asn #702

tbl2asn has been replaced with table2asn. tbl2asn is no longer available for download as of 18 June 2024. https://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_tools/converters/by_program/tbl2asn/README

The new replacement table2asn is here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/table2asn/

I tried installing table2asn and then putting a symlink to tbl2asn in the prokka binaries folder, but prokka did not like this as it couldn't determine the version number of tbl2asn as being>24.3 or higher.

I am having the same issue and got the following error:

Error: Too many positional arguments (1), the offending value: - Error: (CArgException::eSynopsis) Too many positional arguments (1), the offending value: - [16:48:11] Could not determine version of tbl2asn - please install version 24.3 or higher

This was fixed when I installed with conda as this provided tbl2asn-forever as a dependency https://anaconda.org/bioconda/tbl2asn-forever
