How to download BBTools sketch databases using fetchRefSeq?

Question

[O.rka]

Does anyone know how to download these databases properly for BBTools?

I got it to work back in 2019 but can't seem to get it to work with the newest version. Here's the error I've gotten with the fetch scripts:

Version: BBMap version 38.93

RefSeq

My speculation is since NCBI has deprecated use of gi numbers this script no longer works.

[O.rka]

Do you know if there are any plans in the future to update these scripts? A big fan of the BBTools suite and would prefer to include them in pipelines I'm actively working on and potentially will publish.

Do you remember what was the end result of this script when it ran in 2019? Is it just downloading RefSeq data? Perhaps I can suggest an alternate way.

[O.rka]

The end result was a bunch of sketch files:

(base) -bash-4.2$ cd bbtools/refseq_2019-02-14/
(base) -bash-4.2$ ls
taxa0.sketch   taxa12.sketch  taxa15.sketch  taxa18.sketch  taxa20.sketch  taxa23.sketch  taxa26.sketch  taxa29.sketch  taxa3.sketch  taxa6.sketch  taxa9.sketch
taxa10.sketch  taxa13.sketch  taxa16.sketch  taxa19.sketch  taxa21.sketch  taxa24.sketch  taxa27.sketch  taxa2.sketch   taxa4.sketch  taxa7.sketch
taxa11.sketch  taxa14.sketch  taxa17.sketch  taxa1.sketch   taxa22.sketch  taxa25.sketch  taxa28.sketch  taxa30.sketch  taxa5.sketch  taxa8.sketch

Each one looks like this:

(base) -bash-4.2$ head -n 3 taxa0.sketch && echo " " && tail -n 3 taxa0.sketch
