Have you encountered issues while trying to following the tutorial on wiki?

Back in January, I made some notes on the temporary fixes I needed to do 
(but which didn't comply with the devscripts, so I didn't modify the 
scripts).

Running hdl-dev-ls2 failed because of setuptools:

I bodged that by manually installing a newer version of setuptools_scm 
using a whl file (whereas the real solution is to remove the dependency 
on setuptools altogether in setup.py for lambdasoc repo - I don't have W 
access though).

There was also a problem that an older version of nmigen (0.2) was 
installed. Possibly because git tags were removed? Not sure why they 
were even removed in the first place (Luke, please don't comment code 
with "# very annoying" as that doesn't actually explain why you need to 
do it).

I think I took out the "git tag -d" commands in my local version.

Not sure if these three recent commits by Luke fixed that (will test later):

Also couldn't use xc3sprog to program my arty a7-100t without sudo 
(missing a udev rule or something like that).
