Vivado does not like the latest Ubuntu 18.04.5 #2

Description

@waterwin

Xilinx / Vivado checks the installed OS. It likes 18.04.4 but not the only available 18.04.5

(not to mention the current 20 LTS versions ...)

You need to make sure users now how to handle this issue else your instructions to install Vivado might fail.

I found this on the web which worked for me:
Solution
I had the same problem.   Although 18.04.5 is not supported, 18.04.4 is listed as a supported version.   I temporarily changed my /etc/os-release file in two places: VERSION and PRETTY_NAME.   I changed it to 18.04.4 then installed the software normally.   Make sure you change back to 18.04.5 when you are finished.
