Installing Python Tools

[chaohwa4]

I am trying to run the ADALM-PLUTO project. When I type "sudo pip install .", I have the following error. How should I fix this?

`chaohwa@chaohwa-ThinkPad-Edge-E540:~/zynq_timestamping/python_tools$ sudo pip install .

The setuptools has to be version 61 or later. The setuptools version I have is 59.6. The short hack is to edit pyproject.toml to change the minimum requirement under 59.

The above is run on Ubuntu 18.04. When you run Ubuntu 20.04, you won't have this issue.
