simpleaf index error piscem index failed to build succesfully ExitStatus(unix_wait_status(6))

[lichtobergo]

Hi @rob-p,
I was trying to build the splici index for the GENCODE GRCm39 mouse genome. I stuck to the described procedure from here
I used conda to install simpleaf
mamba create -n af -y -c bioconda -c conda-forge simpleaf

To build the index I ran simpleaf index with these commands

export ALEVIN_FRY_HOME='.'
simpleaf set-paths
ulimit -n 2048

simpleaf index \
--output ref/GRCm39_vM36 \
--fasta ref/GRCm39.primary_assembly.genome.fa \
--gtf ref/gencode.vM36.primary_assembly.annotation.gtf \
--rlen 91 \
--threads 16

Unfortunately, I get this error:
