Hello,
Yesterday I updated the system using
$ sudo xbps-install -Syu
and recieved a large number of updated packages, including the 4.1.11_1 version of the kernel. Since then, when trying to launch MATLAB, I always get a segmentation fault:
$ /usr/local/MATLAB/R2015b/bin/matlab
MATLAB is selecting SOFTWARE OPENGL rendering.
Segmentation fault
I have never observed this happen before. I had a working installation of MATLAB before the update, and reinstalling the program does not help. I tried to figure out what is causing this with gdb:
$ matlab -Dgdb
MATLAB is selecting SOFTWARE OPENGL rendering.
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.10
...
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2015b/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB -prefersoftwareopengl
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/usr/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
So it looks like the issue could be with the threading library. At this point I am not sure what to do. Any ideas?
Thank you for the help,
Jeremy Mason
