Dependency Conflict: Python 3.10 vs fastqsplitter (Requires Python 3.5)

[liu20031021]

Hi! I'm trying to reproduce the experiments from the paper Lotaru: Locally Estimating Runtimes of Scientific Workflow Tasks in Heterogeneous Clusters, and your Python implementation is extremely helpful. However, I encountered a dependency conflict:

• Your code requires Python 3.10(e.g., using match-case syntax features).
• The Conda package for fastqsplitter only supports Python 3.5.

This makes it impossible to install both in the same environment. Could you clarify how you resolved this conflict? Specifically:

1. Is there an alternative version of fastqsplitter compatible with Python 3.10?
2. Did you manually compile fastqsplitter for Python 3.10?
3. Are there alternative tools to replace fastqsplitter?

Looking forward to your guidance!
