General instructions on how to correctly install Vitis and add Digilent's board files can be found here.

1. Vitis installation on Linux hangs at generating installed device list. Install the following libraries: libncurses5, libtinfo5, libncurses5-dev, libncursesw5-dev. (Original post here)
2. Export IP fails. Follow the instructions here to apply the patch that solves the known bug.
3. Generate HDL wrapper hangs. Change syntax checker from Sigasi to Vivado. (Original post here)
4. Vitis IDE crashes during debug session. In certain systems, using Vitis IDE's integrated terminal to communicate with the development board through serial causes Vitis IDE to crash. To avoid this, use a third-party serial client such as minicom, screen, or PuTTY.
