As discussed in https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD/pull/2288 and https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD/issues/2287 this seems to be an issue with OpenLane not passing the `-exit` flag when calling `openroad -python` and therefore hanging forever on the python...

@ddm2000 if you want to install the latest version of magic without building is from source, you could give a try to the conda package published here: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/magic
