Matlab install fails on Manjaro.

I can't install suscesfully MATLAB over Manjaro KDE. The computer starts to use a lot of CPU resources and suddenly kills the installation, i also tried installing a vanilla version, but i get the same result.

Also, i installed form the AUR libselinux and libsepol to resolve another error that avoid the start of the installator. I really don't know how i can resolve this problem.

These are my system info

System:    Host: cesar-LAP Kernel: 5.7.0-3-MANJARO x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.18.5 Distro: Manjaro Linux 

and the console output

sudo ./install
[sudo] password for cesarbo: 
Terminado (killed)

Answer 1

[Mikhail]

I would pay attention to these lines in the installer log:

Warning: Insufficient disk space.Location: /tmp Required Space: 13.02 GB Increase space, select fewer products, or choose different destination.

[Moises Nuñez Lopez]

I have the same problem and I don't understand the storage error, I have enough storage.

Answer 2

[Chunyu Xiao]

Hi,

After such a long time, I hope you have solved this problem.

I use Manjaro Linux too, and have met the same problem as yours. @Mikhail was right that /tmp doesn't have enough free space to store the install files ( run df -h in the terminal to see the avaliable space of /tmp ).

The solution is to run ./install twice: the first time you just log in and select 'Download without installation', after that you can go to the installer folder to run ./install again to perform installation.

If you don't have sudo permission , please remember to modify the path (such as /home/<username>/MATLAB ) when you're installing MATLAB.
