export XRAY_VIVADO_SETTINGS=/opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2017.2/settings64.sh
Do not source the settings64.sh in your shell, since this adds directories of
the Vivado installation at the beginning of your PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH
variables, which will likely interfere with or break non-Vivado applications in
that shell. The Vivado wrapper utils/vivado.sh makes sure that the environment
variables from XRAY_VIVADO_SETTINGS are automatically sourced in a separate
shell that is then only used to run Vivado to avoid these problems.
