bazelisk run //:install Builds and installs OpenROAD (with GUI), Yosys, and yosys-slang to tools/install/. Re-runs are instant (stamp file per submodule commit). No sudo required. On Ubuntu, checks for missing -dev packages before building and fails fast with the apt install command. Other platforms not checked (we can't test them, contributions welcome). Docs updated to present Bazel / Nix / CMake as three equal paths. Zero churn: no changes to DependencyInstaller.sh, flow/, setup.sh, build_openroad.sh, or Nix flakes. Tested: gcd/nangate45 synth, asap7/uart synth (yosys-slang). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Øyvind Harboe <oyvind.harboe@zylin.com>

Without running the dependency installer there is no guarantee these will be usable versions.

This can't be the recommended method based on what is in this PR currently.

Remove Ubuntu dep checking, --skip-openroad flag, and verbose help text. Docs: position Bazel as unsupported developer-only option, CMake first. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Øyvind Harboe <oyvind.harboe@zylin.com>
