Hello,

I'm having issues with RNA-bloom, with the option "-mergepool" (I have 5 samples, and I would like to have at the end a merged file of transcripts, without redundancy) :

> Stage 2: Assemble fragments for 5 samples
>> Working on "ASPC1" (sample 1 of 5)...
WARNING: Fragments were already assembled for "ASPC1!
>> Fragments assembled in 0.001s

ERROR: Error during redundancy reduction!

By checking the log file after the error, for the 1st sample, I can see this :

[ERROR] unknown option in "-e"

This is how my READSLIST.txt file looks like :

Thank you in advance for your help !

Hi @mgabriel01 ,

I think this error message came from minimap2:

[ERROR] unknown option in "-e"

Can you please check your minimap2 version? and see whether the -e option is available in the help menu (via --help)?
If not, please update your minimap2 to the latest version.

Hello,

Indeed I was using minimap2 v2.17 ; I did the update to the version v2.28 (latest to this day), and it went further. Do you know a way to speed it up (I'm already using 20 threads) ?

Thank you again for your fast answer !

Sorry, I missed your last message. Did you manage to create the merged assembly?
