History
2018-10-31: e1 - sdb6 - F28 - Quartus II 13.0 - install the web version
[tingo@kg-elitebook qtemp_0]$ pwd /home/tingo/doc/Altera/quartusii/linux/v13.0/qtemp_0 [tingo@kg-elitebook qtemp_0]$ ./setup.sh
and away we go. Installed in
/home/tingo/progs/altera/13.0sp1/
and (as usual on this machine) only the 32-bit version work, the 64-bit version crashes.
2018-10-31: e1 - sdb6 - F28 - realized I had installed the subsciption editor of Quartus II 13.0sp1. Download web version, uninstall the wrong version.
2018-07-25: e1 - sdb6 - F28 - Quartus II patch upgrade
[tingo@kg-elitebook v13.1]$ pwd /zs/tingo/doc/Altera/quartusii/linux/v13.1 [tingo@kg-elitebook v13.1]$ ./QuartusSetup-13.1.4.182.run
and give directory as before. The install takes a long time. Afterwards, version 13.1.4.182 is in. Nothing else changed: 32-bit version works, 64-bit version crashes.
2018-07-25: e1 - sdb6 - F28 - since I discovered filesystem trouble on the sda1 yesterday, I have decided to try a reinstall of Quartus II today.
[tingo@kg-elitebook qtemp]$ pwd /home/tingo/doc/Altera/quartusii/linux/v13.1/qtemp [tingo@kg-elitebook qtemp]$ ./setup.sh
and the installer starts home directory: /home/tingo/progs/altera/13.1 required disk space 11412 MB the installer finishes. Testing - Quartus II 32-bit works, Quartus II 64-bit fails as before command lines
32-bit: ~/progs/altera/13.1/quartus/bin/quartus 64-bit: ~/progs/altera/13.1/quartus/bin/quartus --64bit
ok.
2018-07-17: e1 - sdb6 - F28 - dnf - install libnsl.i686, see if Quartus II (32 bit) starts then
[tingo@kg-elitebook ~]$ sudo dnf install libnsl.i686 [..] Total download size: 79 k Installed size: 118 k [..] Installed: libnsl.i686 2.27-19.fc28 Complete!
no, it also needs libSM.i686 (libICE.i686), and libXrender.i686. But then it starts! This is how I start it:
[tingo@kg-elitebook ~]$ ~/progs/altera/13.1/quartus/bin/quartus
ok
2018-07-16: e1 - sdb6 - F27 - installed Quartus II v13.1:
tingo@kg-elitebook qtemp]$ ./setup.sh You must have the 32-bit compatibility libraries installed for the Quartus II installer and software to operate properly. [tingo@kg-elitebook qtemp]$ tb2_install: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
not sure why it throws an error after the install is finished. test - it doesn't start
[tingo@kg-elitebook quartus]$ pwd /zs/tingo/progs_lin/altera/v13.1/quartus
64-bit
[tingo@kg-elitebook quartus]$ ./bin/quartus --64bit quartus: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
32-bit
[tingo@kg-elitebook quartus]$ ./bin/quartus quartus: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
hmm, why do Quartus II look for that when we have
[tingo@kg-elitebook ~]$ rpm -ql libpng.i686 /usr/lib/.build-id /usr/lib/.build-id/2e /usr/lib/.build-id/2e/2f1639a0581aee6807d23836cc71f97f82d14a /usr/lib/libpng16.so.16 /usr/lib/libpng16.so.16.31.0 /usr/share/licenses/libpng /usr/share/licenses/libpng/LICENSE /usr/share/man/man5/png.5.gz [tingo@kg-elitebook ~]$ rpm -ql libpng.x86_64 /usr/lib/.build-id /usr/lib/.build-id/a8 /usr/lib/.build-id/a8/7537ef3d96f6e8f42d0cc428e9aeba613187fd /usr/lib64/libpng16.so.16 /usr/lib64/libpng16.so.16.31.0 /usr/share/licenses/libpng /usr/share/licenses/libpng/LICENSE /usr/share/man/man5/png.5.gz
oh well. Check what provides libpng12 then
[tingo@kg-elitebook ~]$ sudo dnf provides libpng12 Last metadata expiration check: 1:06:09 ago on Mon 16 Jul 2018 02:26:34 PM CEST. libpng12-1.2.57-4.fc27.i686 : Old version of libpng, needed to run old binaries Repo : fedora Matched from: Provide : libpng12 = 1.2.57-4.fc27 libpng12-1.2.57-4.fc27.x86_64 : Old version of libpng, needed to run old binaries Repo : fedora Matched from: Provide : libpng12 = 1.2.57-4.fc27
ok.
