MEGAN CE: daa-meganizer using only the older default ncbi.tre / ncbi.map

Even if we load the newest, alternate taxonomy files (generated with taxdmp2tree tool) into Megan CE, the daa-meganizer CLI command still insists on the default, older taxonomy data. Also, meganizing via GUI with the updated NCBI tree works smoothly. Unfortunately the tricks used in the Create-accession-db don’t work this time
What could be the solution?
Thanks in advance!
