Do you think bioinformatics libs written in C++ do not have the same issues?

They’re weren’t that many that weren’t pre compiled for Linux in the c++ world. Python is bad, but others have issues too.

C/C++ often had to compile used “make” which I’ll admit to being better at the conda/pip.

I suspect this is because the c/c++ code was developed by people with a more comp Sci background. Configure/make/make install..I remember compiling this one.

If the software made it biogrids life was easier

But a lot of the languages had their own quirks and challenges (Perl cpan, Java…). Containerization kinda helps.
