Worked on packaging improvements for the bioconda-recipes repository, focusing on updating the Mikado dependency to version 2.3.5rc3 and ensuring compatibility with Python 3.10. Addressed build automation and package management challenges by refining build scripts and metadata, including updates to build.sh and meta.yaml, and removing obsolete patches to streamline maintenance. Resolved dependency conflicts by pinning to Python 3.9 where necessary, which improved build reliability and reproducibility across continuous integration environments. Utilized Python and Shell scripting to implement these changes, collaborating on maintainer-level updates and documenting co-authorship to reflect cross-team contributions in the release process.
