@aoneko, @Reexys, please read the post-installation instructions. If you've lost them, you can find the same information here.

@vitaliikuzhdin I am pretty sure the problems @aoneko and @Reexys are not related to the execstack and are rather related to an issue with the newest gnutls, but I am still on 2024b so cannot be certain. I posted a work around at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2251599#p2251599

@aoneko

I'm currently also experiencing the same issue. Hopefully it's just something to do with their servers and maybe some licence validation. Not entirely sure what the issue is however.

I tried this PKGBUILD and installed dependencies manually. However, every time I ran Matlab I got the following error message:

The lines

# Needed for programs like python-matlabengine which expect MATLAB to be in /usr/local
install -dm755 "$pkgdir/usr/local"
ln -s /$_matlabdir "$pkgdir/usr/local/MATLAB"

violate the Arch packaging guidelines (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_package_guidelines#Package_etiquette) which says "Packages should never be installed to /usr/local/" and is in fact not needed (at least for python-matlabengine). That page https://github.com/mathworks/matlab-engine-for-python) says "When MATLAB is not installed in the default location, the bin/architecture directory within the MATLAB root directory must be added to the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

zincles commented on 2023-10-12 16:05 (UTC)

Seems that resetting the owner of the folder /opt/MATLAB by chown can solve the problem of "Something unexpected occurred" when installing APPs. This is definitely not the best solution, but it works. I'm not sure about that.

Rubo commented on 2023-09-21 11:35 (UTC)

@amad3v I moved it because sometimes MATLAB expects it to be installed there, if not you'd have to edit LD_LIBRARY_PATH, as is the case with python-matlabengine. But since it seems impossible to retrieve the license file to install it offline from R2023b+, I'll likely move it to /opt one day.

amad3v commented on 2023-09-21 11:24 (UTC)

@Rubo

I think it's better to move the installtion to /opt
