    VirMine: docker container can't be built due to outdated and unavailable dependencies. Even with that resolved myself, they install a package that needs CLI input during container building which cannot be supplied so it gets stuck in a loop. Cannot be installed.

    PhaMers: several open issues. I opened the one about bad FASTA header parsing. But even when I reformat my headers so that works, new errors pop up (which I didn't bother opening issues for since they were unresponsive to others). Also, output is written to current working directory which is annoying.
