I see, can you update the question and specify the commands you have used to install samtools?

The problem here was that an extremely outdated and semi-broken version of samtools had been installed.

At the time this question was asked, you needed to specify the samtools version number to get an up-to-date and functional samtools via conda:

conda install samtools==1.17

Since then the problem has been fixed and conda install samtools (without a version number) selects the most recent samtools again.
