Yosys will always be at the latest version since we follow the upstream closely. Arch is a rolling distribution so there are no installations with repo access to an older yosys.

As a packager I'd like to advise to install nmigen via the system package manager, this is the only proper way to install it system-wide. Does it make sense to do it here?

Great!

Depends. Would Arch provide the latest release or the latest master?

Latest release, arch packages stable software.

Sure. Then you can add the Arch-specific instructions to the Latest release section, also with :altname: linux.

Note that, in the future (as in, when I figure out the least footgun-y path towards it) the primary mode of using nMigen would be through per-project virtualenvs. Once that happens, these installation instructions would be primarily targeted at developers who a are just trying it out and don't want to bother with relatively heavyweight project management yet.
