Error message when running qiime feature-classifier classify-consensus-blast

Hello,

I am getting this error message when running qiime feature-classifier classify-consensus-blast. As of now, the command seems to running, but I am not sure what the future warning message means. I'm using qiime2-2023.5 using ubuntu.

Command: blastn -query /tmp/qiime2/newt/data/70940ada-947d-4c21-af08-457d2fc6aed1/data/dna-sequences.fasta -evalue 0.001 -strand both -outfmt 6 -subject /tmp/qiime2/newt/data/107c9529-47e3-4be1-bd78-74e672db3526/data/dna-sequences.fasta -perc_identity 80.0 -qcov_hsp_perc 80.0 -max_target_seqs 1000 -out /tmp/q2-BLAST6Format-3f2b8myk

Hi @Newt ,

Don't worry, this is just a warning, not an error. The command will still run fine.

A future warning is something for us as developers to worry about, but not something that users need to worry about — it means that some of the code will need to change in the future to work with a future release of an underlying software package, as the code in that package will change. But in the meantime it works just fine. :sunglasses:

Good luck!
