Bad tools that NEED improvement
MetaRon is a tool for metagenomic operon prediction that was published in BMC Genomics in 2020. As far as I can tell, no one has been able to get it to work, and the authors are unresponsive on GitHub. If I knew any python, I would take a crack at fixing it.

Bad tools that NEED improvement
VirNet: several issues with their dependencies not being available. For fun, you have to read the issue opened on their "requirments.txt". Pointed out bad dependencies, and mentioned that the file "requirments.txt" was mispelled and so didn't match the README. They updated the README to reflect the mispelling, left the bad file name and bad dependencies, and closed the issue.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing MetaRon and virnet you can also consider the following projects:
RNN-VirSeeker - This is a deep learning method for identification of viral contigs with short length from metagenomic data.
