If you can't update tcpborphserver, I recommend going with the other
suggestion of:
katcp=0.5.5
corr=0.7.3
you'll also possibly need older versions of some other packages (there was
a while I had to downgrade construct to 2.5.5).
you can then access the fpga via:
import corr
fpga = corr.katcp_wrapper.FpgaClient('ipaddress')
