Porteus

Hi everyone,

After installing Matlab I came to an error message that, after searching for a while, it ended up being a lack of libselinux (don't know if it works or is adequate, but I think it can be found here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libselinux/). Reference: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral ... w-on-linux

I would be really thankful if someone could help me solve this:

Regards,

Hi Lucas.
What about these packages ?

Blaze,

Thanks a lot! It worked like a charm!
Just one more thing. There is a package that helps integrating matlab, usually you can get it in Ubuntu with: How can I make it work in Porteus? Is there an alternative?
Thanks again.

Lucas, unfortunately matlab does not present in USM (Slackware) repos

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install matlab-support

for Porteus it looks like this

You can use pkgs.org service
https://pkgs.org/download/matlab
and convert matlab-support.deb to xzm module.

Cheers

Blaze,

Thanks alot for the help. I wasn't sure how to convert the .deb to a module, but I was able to get things the way I wanted with some guidance of this link:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB (just posting if someone is in the same needs I was).

It helped with the installation and adding matlab to the application's menu. Didn't knew that I was able to edit things through the /usr/share/applications. Opened some of the files in kate to learn the semantics and options I had (nothing as being curious for learning! ).

Regards,
