Help will be really appreciated.

Hi, I'm sorry, I'm not sure what I can tell you here. This tool has been superseded by a number of better options in the last 5-6 years, and I'm not even sure it's able to run anymore. It looks like it's probably a python 2 - python 3 problem, but I'm not entirely sure about that. Realistically I should probably remove it from the package repository entirely, but I would highly recommend you try to find a more recent tool for error correcting nanopore data.

I'm not really sure, I haven't worked with nanopore sequencing data in almost six years, long enough that all of the tools since then are completely different. I would suggest looking for a recent review article or contacting someone still in the field. Good luck!
