Metaphlan install error with pip

I am trying to follow the biobakery workflow tutorial and am running into errors trying to install the workflows with pip. I successfully installed kneaddata and humann, but metaphlan is giving me trouble.
Specifically, I am stuck here:
$ metaphlan --install --nproc 2

This returns an error related to bowtie2:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘bowtie2-build’: ‘bowtie2-build’

How can I fix this?

Hi,

You could download bowtie2 directly from Bowtie - Browse /bowtie2/2.4.4 at SourceForge.net

After decompress, add that path to the $PATH

Can u explain this more plz:

After decompress, add that path to the $PATH

what does this mean? I need to put it in metaphlan folder of repo I installed?

============================================================

I installed metaphlan using lines below

and then everything was going smoothly till this error appeared below

Hi all, installing metaphlan with pip will NOT install all the libraries and dependencies necessary to run the tool (and they should be installed manually), I suggest you instead to install it using conda
