Hi Zheng, The builders all have Python installed, but how you access it depends on the OS: for Mac and Linux, use `python3` and for Windows, use `python`. The issue we see in Rbowtie2's build error is related to the lines
432 invisible(.callbinary(lang = "python", 433 bin1 = "bowtie2-build", 434 args1 = paste(argvs,collapse = " "))) 505 .callbinary(lang = "python", bin1 = "bowtie2-build", args1 = "-h") You should check for the the OS to determine how you should call Python, for example using `.Platform$OS.type`. The reason it isn't also failing on Mac is that `python` exists, but it's Python 2, which we no longer support and will likely be removed in the future.

Do not open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails.*** Dear all, I have tested python (Rbowtie2 version 1.15.3) and python3 (Rbowtie2 version 1.15.4). Both of the building results are the same: The python or python3 can not be found in Linux Server. Both versions of python works in Windows and Mac. Could anyone check the Linux server?
