Having trouble installing on MacOS #22

Hello, I know this is probably not a bug with the code but I was hoping someone here would know.

I intend to run this on a M1 Mac and I cannot get past the conda env create -f UFold.yml A few things stand out for me. One is that it seems like conda cannot resolve the packages in that yml, but I also don't know much of Conda, so I might be mis-interpreting what this does.

Second is that I see CUDA references, but I don't have an NVDIA card. Will this still run on CPU or Apple GPU perhaps? If so, should I remove the CUDA references or that is a show stopper for me?

I've been working on a project to slice motifs from RNA and I was hoping I could tailor my output to fit UFold and script it so it goes out of our tool and into UFold and make it a breeze for users to input a sequence and get all the folded structures.

Just in case, this is what I'm getting from the command:

conda env create -f UFold.yml Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done Solving environment: failed

ResolvePackageNotFound:

Hello nlabrad, I am a MacUser and I encounntered the same problem as yours. But I ran it successfully on Linux system, I think this is a software intended for Linux only. You may try other RNA secondary structure predictor(for instance, RNAfold in ViennaRNA,I installed it successfully on my mac)
