bifrost: Conda/Bifrost 1.0.3 illegal instruction error

Hi, just fyi, after installing Bifrost via Conda/bioconda, it immediately exits with an “illegal instruction” error. Building from source on the same server is possible, though. The machine is equipped with the following CPU model:

model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7-8857 v2 @ 3.00GHz
stepping        : 7
microcode       : 0x715

@winni2k Sorry that it took me so long to come back to this. I just tested installing Bifrost using the environment that you posted above (the one including binutils etc). It looks like this is working even on the machines that lack the AVX2 instruction set.
