| I got problems installing Matlab R2022a on Arch. Running the installer throws the following error: | |
| ``` | |
| terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error' | |
| what(): Failed to launch web window with error: Unable to launch the MATLABWindow application. The exit code was: 127 | |
| fish: Job 1, 'sudo ./install' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort) | |
| ``` | |
| I fixed it by running the following commands. | |
| ```bash | |
| cd <matlab installer root directory> | |
| cd bin/glnxa64 | |
| ls | grep libfreetype | |
| mkdir exclude | |
| mv libfreetype.so.6 exclude/ | |
| mv libfreetype.so.6.16.0 exclude/ | |
| ``` |
I have the same issue. Neither libfreetype.so nor libtiff exist in the /bin/glnxa64. How can I figure it out which file to remove?
