python setup.py egg_info error

Hi all, I tried installing logicnets using ./docker/run-docker.sh and I got the following error.

I simply tried running an example and I got No module named 'logicnets' error. Please help me with this @nickfraser. Thanks!

[nickfraser]

Apologies for the delay. For some reason I'm not getting notification emails from github. I'll look into this error and get back to you.

[BalaDhinesh]

I guess the problem is with the docker groupadd command. Commenting lines #45 and #46 in ./docker/Dockerfile.cpu and lines from 30 till 33 in ./docker/run-docker.sh fixed the issue.

[nickfraser]

Removing those environment variables will likely cause other issues, instead I recommend changing these lines to return the correct values for your host system: https://github.com/Xilinx/logicnets/blob/master/docker/run-docker.sh#L19-L22
