unable to open matlab simulink start page in fedora 26

Hi,

I upgraded fedora to fedora 26 and simulink start page does not open.

Here is the result of some missing libraries:

Quote:

>> cd(matlabroot)
>> cd bin/glnxa64
>> !./MATLABWindow -url=http://mathworks.com --disable-gpu
./MATLABWindow: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libharfbuzz.so.0: undefined symbol: FT_Get_Var_Blend_Coordinates
>> simulink
Warning: MATLABWindow application failed to launch. Unable to launch the MATLABWindow application
> In sltemplate.ui.StartPage/showWithFallback
In sltemplate.ui.StartPage.show

I have installed harbuzz and all its dependencies, yet it has not solved the problem. Any help is really appreciated.

I think your problem is much larger than it lets on. Fedora 25 uses wayland instead of X11. Here is a link for troubleshooting: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_t...yland_problems

If you're not in the mood to troubleshoot Fedora, then I suggest using something else for a year or so until Red Hat works out the bugs and developers have a chance to catch up.

That's what I'm doing!
