Cannot find libhts.so.1

CLAIRE-cuhk opened this issue · 2 comments

Hi,
I am trying to install WiggleTools with command conda install -c bioconda wiggletools. Here is the message I got after installation:
$wiggletools --help
wiggletools: error while loading shared libraries: libhts.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When I do which wiggletools, it appears the tool is already in the environment.
$which wiggletools
~/Scratch/bioinfo_tools/miniconda/install/envs/bioinfo/bin/wiggletools

Could you help that out?

Thank you very much.

Dear @CLAIRE-cuhk ,

Thank you for your interest in Wiggletools. We do not maintain the conda installer, so it is hard to comment on why the dependency is broken, but in short you are missing htslib.

It would seem from the conda help pages that you can install it with the following command:

conda install -c bioconda htslib

Hope this helps,

Daniel
