Hi!

In order to use your tool, I followed the installation suggestion here:

minos/README.md

Lines 18 to 24 in 0611d65

### Installation from GitHub
```console
git clone https://github.com/EI-CoreBioinformatics/minos.git
cd minos
python setup.py bdist_wheel;
pip install dist/*whl
```

These lines will install minos in the "base" environment (or any active conda environment). It caused some version issues on our local machine for python and snakemake and it install the oldest possible versions. These old versions of software caused some problems with our machine (I do not know why). I found this small change helpful:

git clone https://github.com/EI-CoreBioinformatics/minos.git
cd minos
conda create -n minos python=3.7
conda activate minos
python setup.py bdist_wheel;
pip  --no-cache-dir install dist/*whl

Best regards,
Armin
