help setting ms4alg on mountainlab

[ferchaure]

Hi, I have been trying mountainlab (I installed on ubuntu 18.04 using the conda commands), I used ephys process without issues but when I try to run ms4alg.sort I got errors for hours (maybe a loop of errors?)

Before that I got an error related to missing modules in dask and I run:
pip install dask[complete]
After that I try again and got:
(I show just the first error)

Following your readme here

and installing all the packages:
conda install -c flatiron -c conda-forge mountainlab mountainlab_pytools ml_ephys ml_ms3 ml_ms4alg ml_pyms
It works!

Hi again, that fix installs the old version of mountainsort on conda. If I install the latest ms4alg using pip I still got that error, any idea?
