[TheBil99]

Hey! I am having the following issue when running VEP in singularity with loftee plugin

`bash-5.1$ singularity exec $HOME/vep.sif vep --dir $HOME/vep_data -i $HOME/ensembl/ensembl-vep/examples/homo_sapiens_GRCh38.vcf --refseq --regulatory --cache --cache_version 113 --plugin LoF,loftee_path:/users/diasfrazer/fbilleci/.vep/Plugins/loftee/
