We are currently investigating Maya 2025. The licensing does not seem to run [1] [2].

Many thanks to ttc0419 for getting this set up and for writing these instructions originally.

Autodesk has updated the EULA for the Autodesk Education version. See here for more info. Note that the checksums for this package use the paid version, which may or may not be the same as the educational versions.

Installation Instructions:

To download the latest version of Maya, go to your Autodesk account Products and Services and save the Linux tgz file to any location of your choice.

Extract the tgz file to any location of your choice.

Maya is now split into several packages as it is for the official rpm installation. You will need the following files from the extracted tgz file to build some other packages as well:

  1. (required) Packages/adlmapps*.rpm to build adlmapps
  2. (required) Packages/adsklicensing*.rpm to build adsklicensing
  3. (required) Packages/Maya*.rpm to build this package
  4. (optional) Packages/package.zip to build maya-arnold
  5. (optional) Packages/Bifrost*.rpm to build maya-bifrost
  6. (optional) Packages/AdobeSubstance3DforMaya*.rpm to build maya-substance, if you don't want to download directly from Adobe
  7. (optional) Packages/MayaUSD*.rpm to build maya-usd-bin, if you don't want to download directly from GitHub
  8. (optional) Packages/LookdevX.rpm to build maya-lookdevx

Packages 1 and 2 are required to use Maya and 4 to 8 are plugins that can be installed when needed.

You will need to move the rpm files to the directory containing the corresponding package's PKGBUILD file. Please refer to the AUR wiki for further installation details, since AUR helpers may or may not work with this package.

After installation, you may wish to enable the Autodesk Licensing service with systemctl enable adsklicensing.service. This service is started automatically one time when installing and removing this package.

Note that the install file will automatically register and deregister Maya with the licensing service if you are using the adsklicensing package. You may need to restart the adsklicensing service and reinstall Maya if adsklicensing was upgraded and running at the same time.

Launch Maya and log into your Autodesk account or enter your product serial to check out a license. Note that Wayland is currently not supported by the licensing software.

Please note that the Maya executable is patched to launch with the --single-process flag to address launch issues with the Application Home. You may try to opt out of this patch if this does not present an issue for you.

Troubleshooting:

If you are having the following font error, Failed trying to load font : -*-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 //, first try the Autodesk recommended commands with your normal permissions.

xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/100dpi
xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/75dpi
xset fp rehash

(source)

If you are still seeing font errors, you can try one or more of the following:

  1. Install xorg-mkfontscale and run mkfontscale in /usr/share/fonts. Then re-run the xset commands above.
  2. Try running the xset commands with superuser permissions.
  3. Try enabling and generating the following locales: en_GB ISO-8859-1 en_US ISO-8859-1

If you are having licensing errors, you can refer to this comment/forum post by mac666er recommending you to only use the en_US.UTF-8 locale or this comment by TheSunCat recommending you to disable Wayland.

If your launch process hangs at the OpenCL initialization, you may wish to check for OpenCL conflicts as mentioned in this comment by TheSunCat. You may also need to rename/delete the intel-openapi icd file in /etc/OpenCL/vendors as mentioned here.

Cheers

The PKGBUILD needs QT4 added as a dependency, also for those of you who get an error like this while running the setup: X Error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) 10 Extension: 130 (MIT-SHM) Minor opcode: 1 (X_ShmAttach) Resource id: 0x145 You can run the setup like this to fix it: sudo QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1 /opt/maya-setup/setup

Please add/move the licence of this package to "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/".

These bugs can be easily fixed: echo "MAYA_DISABLE_CIP=1" >> ~/maya/2017/Maya.env # w/o it maya segfaults echo "LC_ALL=C" >> ~/maya/2017/Maya.env # w/o it maya gives singular matrix error Also you need this to prevent constant Helvetica package errors: xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/100dpi/ xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/75dpi/ xset fp rehash After that, Bifrost will be telling about missing lib: // Error: line 1: Unable to dynamically load : /usr/autodesk/maya2017/plug-ins/bifrost/plug-ins/bifrostshellnode.so libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory // // Error: line 1: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (bifrostshellnode) // To fix that, install aur/libtinfo (symlink package to ncurses) and after that: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.6 /usr/autodesk/maya2017/lib/libtinfo.so.5

There are some python<->openssl issues that are probably caused by the update to openssl 1.1. I haven't managed to get many things working since.

YAOMTC commented on 2017-04-13 21:42 (UTC)

I fixed my problem (albeit on CentOS) by disabling consistent network device naming, and reverting to the old style of eth0.

Running the setup and choosing the default options destroyed pacman... "pacman: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libssh2.so.1: undefined symbol: EVP_rc4" EDIT: ugh sorry, the LD_LIBARY_PATH linked pacman to the autodesk openssl libs...

I can't get this to work. I just get "command not found" for maya. I built the package, installed it, ran "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/R12/lib64/", sudo ./setup, it fails (as expected?) with the "Could not launch rpm executable", and then... what next? EDIT: The command for Maya 2017 is "maya2017" not "maya". However I get a new error now - "AdlmInt Error: The AUTODESK_ADLM_THINCLIENT_ENV XML file could not be loaded maya: Autodesk Maya 2017Licensing ErrorA licensing error occurred that Autodesk systems were not able to handle for you. Please contact Autodesk Customer Support for help in resolving this error.GetFeatureAuthorizationStatus 6 (Initialization Error)"

@aquarius Perhaps so, however, Maya 2017 can also be acquired for free via a student licence, which, as far as I know, as no limits.
