ImportError: cannot import name 'get_argument_parser' from 'snakemake'

After I installed drop_demo using mamba I have this error:
(drop_env) ➜ drop_d drop demo
Traceback (most recent call last):

Iinstalled drop_env with miniconda on a virtual machine with CENTOS 7.
When I type which snakemake and which python I have this answer:
(drop_env) ➜ drop_d which snakemake
~/miniconda3/envs/drop_env/bin/snakemake
(drop_env) ➜ drop_d which python
~/miniconda3/envs/drop_env/bin/python

Thanks

Hi, can you try installing DROP using the yaml file?

In the case of mamba/conda troubles we recommend using the fixed DROP_.yaml installation file we make available on our public server. Install the current version and use the full path in the following command to install the conda environment drop_env

mamba env create -f DROP_1.3.3.yaml

Using yaml file it works, thank you very much.
My doubt arose because I have three identical virtual machines and the procedure was finished correctly on the first virtual machine, while on the other two the message I reported appears. Anyway using the yalm file everything works and so the problem is solved. I am very grateful for the help
