How to annotate phage genomes?

Question

[marongiu.luigi]

I would like to annotate the genome of bacteriophages. I have tried with PHAROKKA but there is no way I can install it on an Ubuntu 22 machine (I tried all the proposed ways but even if the installation looks complete, then it does not run, modules are missing etc).

IS there a more user-friendly software for phage gene annotation?

What is the correct procedure for annotating phage genes starting from fastq sequencing files?

Thank you

Since there is a conda way that should not be happening. Software received an update last week so it is actively being maintained. Reach out to the devs via GitHub if you have a reproducible failure with install.
