Installation failure, error 8 test_metabat_1 failed

[William Strike]

Hello!

I have attempted to install metabat on an Ubuntu wsl. I’ve attached an image of an error that I wasn’t able to find much information online about while I tried to run the installation script.

Thanks so much for your help!

I don’t have any access to a Windows machine in order to test this, but I am happily surprised that you were able to get it to build and work at all.

If, in the build directory you execute:
”ctest --verbose” then you will get more information as to why that second test failed.

This is an example of what I get for a passing test #2
