Unable to launch flow.tcl in local installation
After worked around the pyinstaller problem (version 4.1 to use instead of latest 5.1) I managed to run the installl script python3 ./env.py local-install. According to the doc at https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenLane/blob/master/docs/source/local_installs.md, I should just do ./flow.tcl but I get:
ERROR]: run_non_interactive_mode missing required -design
while executing
"parse_key_args "run_non_interactive_mode" args arg_values $options flags_map $flags -no_consume" (procedure "run_non_interactive_mode" line 10) invoked from within "run_non_interactive_mode {*}$argv" invoked from within "if { [info exists flags_map(-interactive)] || [info exists flags_map(-it)] } { if { [info exists arg_values(-file)] } { run_file [file nor..." (file "./flow.tcl" line 384)
If I use /flow.tcl -design spm, it does not work either with:
[INFO]: Using design configuration at /home/titan/eda/ol/designs/spm/config.tcl [INFO]: Sourcing Configurations from /home/titan/eda/ol/designs/spm/config.tcl [ERROR]: PDK_ROOT is not specified. Please make sure you have it set.

That's uh. I mean you can invoke flow.tcl with the same arguments as inside the Docker container.
As for PDK_ROOT, you do need to set that separately, in addition to using a tool like volare to get the PDK installed.
We'll update the documentation to reflect all of that.
Ah yeah indeed. Option -design is needed. I just followed blindy the doc at https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenLane/blob/master/docs/source/local_installs.md.
Ok thanks. I will try once the doc is updated.
