Attempting to run the recommended .circleci/setup-heroku.sh at the end of my 2.0 script fails with permissions issues:

```auto
bash .circleci/setup-heroku.sh

I run into the same issue following the [Heroku Deployment Integration Guide](https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/deployment_integrations/#heroku).

Instead of this snippet in the `.circleci/setup-heroku.sh` script:

```
wget https://cli-assets.heroku.com/branches/stable/heroku-linux-amd64.tar.gz
mkdir -p /usr/local/lib /usr/local/bin
tar -xvzf heroku-linux-amd64.tar.gz -C /usr/local/lib
ln -s /usr/local/lib/heroku/bin/heroku /usr/local/bin/heroku

```

I removed it and replace it with:

```
 wget -qO- https://cli-assets.heroku.com/install-ubuntu.sh | sh

```

found in the [Heroku CLI documentation](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli#debian-ubuntu)

**Update** : You can also use `sudo`. The Project Walkthrough guide has been updated to reflect this:

```
...
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib /usr/local/bin
sudo tar -xvzf heroku-linux-amd64.tar.gz -C /usr/local/lib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/heroku/bin/heroku /usr/local/bin/heroku
```
