[Jeewan-Thapa]

Code used: conda config --add channels bioconda conda config --add channels conda-forge conda create --name snippy snippy

Results: Channels:

• conda-forge
• bioconda
• defaults Platform: osx-arm64 Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done Solving environment: failed

LibMambaUnsatisfiableError: Encountered problems while solving:

• nothing provides bcftools >=1.8 needed by snippy-4.4.0-0

Could not solve for environment specs The following packages are incompatible └─ snippy is not installable because there are no viable options ├─ snippy [4.4.0|4.4.1|4.4.3] would require │ └─ bcftools >=1.8 , which does not exist (perhaps a missing channel); ├─ snippy [4.4.3|4.4.5] would require │ └─ bcftools >=1.9 , which does not exist (perhaps a missing channel); ├─ snippy 4.4.5 would require │ └─ bcftools >=1.9,<1.10 , which does not exist (perhaps a missing channel); └─ snippy [4.5.0|4.5.1|4.6.0] would require └─ bcftools >=1.10 , which does not exist (perhaps a missing channel).
