Pathogenome installation

Hi qiime2 developers,

I am trying to detect antibiotic resistance genes from metagenomic assemblies using the plugin q2-amrfinderplus in pathogenome suite.

I installed version 2026.1 and 2026.4 following the conda installation instructions:

2026.1:

conda env create
--name q2-pathogenome-2026.1 --file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qiime2/distributions/refs/heads/dev/2026.4/pathogenome/released/rachis-pathogenome-linux-64-conda.yml

2026.4:

conda env create
--name rachis-pathogenome-2026.4 --file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qiime2/distributions/refs/heads/dev/2026.4/pathogenome/released/rachis-pathogenome-linux-64-conda.yml

However, when I ran the command

qiime amrfinderplus annotate

I found plugin named 'assembly' could not be found in 2026.4, and 'partition_contigs' was not found for plugin 'assembly' in 2026.1. Then I ran

qiime info

and found:

2026.4 version:

It seems both versions don't have a complete set of plugins. Can I install the missing plugins individually? Can you give me some advice? Thanks for the help!

Hey @Yuhong,

Thanks for reaching out and bringing this to our attention!

The removal of q2-assembly was an oversight on our part for 2026.4. I'm going to work on a patch release for this; I'll circle back when this is taken care of. Thanks for your patience!

Hey @Yuhong,

Thanks for your patience! The necessary changes have been patched into 2026.4, so you can reinstall the release environment for pathogenome and everything should be working as expected now. Please let us know if you run into any further issues!

Cheers :lizard:

Hi @lizgehret,

Thank you for fixing the issue so quickly! The plugin is running perfectly now :slightly_smiling_face:
