 ### Part 1: Set up environment for EDL tools
 *If you were following an older revision of this guide and stuck at `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'`, starting with Python 3.12, `distutils`, which is a dependency of `capstone`, has been deprecated and removed (mentioned in Python documentation page [What's New In Python 3.10]). It's now superceded by third-party package `setuptools`, which you can install from PyPI with `pip3 install setuptools`.*
 
 #### Linux
-Open a shell prompt, install Python and `pip` from your package manager of choice, then install the dependencies for `edl.py` from PyPI:
-- Debian/Ubuntu-based distros: `sudo apt-get install python pip3 android-sdk-platform-tools`
-- Fedora, CentOS, RHEL: `sudo dnf install python python3-pip android-tools`
-- Arch-based distros: `sudo pacman -S python python-pip android-tools`

 If you have any issues with accessing the phone on Debian/Ubuntu-based distros, append `blacklist qcserial` in `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf` and copy `51-edl.rules` and `50-android.rules` from the Drivers folder (root of EDL directory if you have andybalholm's `edl.py`) to `/etc/udev/rules.d`:
