[h-sh-h]

Hello, I downloaded the ALL packages tar file the tried to install it with the following command sudo dpkg -i * but I get the following errors :

[h-sh-h]

I removed "libc6-amd64:i386"

But I get the following errors :

@h-sh-h Before installing the patches can you try to updating your system to the very latest of everything with

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

This will make sure that everything in your ubuntu system is up-to-date.

In addition on a completely new ubuntu docker container I found I needed to do the following to get the install to complete successfully (since you may not have some of the required dependencies)

dpkg -i *.deb
apt-get --fix-broken install
dpkg -i *.deb

What I have just tested is from a latest pull of ubuntu:20.04 I apt-get on wget so I can then download the allpackages tar. I un-tar'd it and did the above successfully. Hopefully this will help get your install completed.

[h-sh-h]

Thanks for the feedback.

Actually I spent a whole day working on dependencies and it gave me a headache. With no progress.

I just upgraded to the newest ubuntu 22.

Now I am stuck with hardware opengl 😑. Although Matlab did recognize my GPU.

Hi, @josmartin . Kindly include the information provided in this comment in the Installation instructions in the README. Most non-linux-savvy people like me need it and preferably, they shouldn't have to search the repo's issues in order to get it :) Thank you!

Hi, @josmartin . Kindly also include in the README that the dpkg -i *.deb command is meant to install all the packages provided in the all_packages.tar.gz file. I only figured this out after reading the issues.
