Hi,
I'm still having trouble to use scilab 6.0.0 in Ubuntu 17.10. As i stated in

teaching numerical methods and input is very useful. But then i realized atoms 
is also not working, at least in my pc. I get the error

So, i thought i could compile scilab myself, but when running configure file, i 
get this error:

Oops, forget that last message!!!

I had accidentally left the old tarfile binary in my path and that's
why I was getting the same results (should have guessed that from the
-nwni timestamp, grrr).

Anyway, after removing it I can now start Scilab 6.0.0 in Ubuntu 17.10 :-)

Hi Nikolay,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I followed the instructions you linked to,
and succeeded in installing 6.0.0 from bionic, but unfortunately I
still get the same problem on startup:-

Cannot find this look and feel:
[GTK look and feel - com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel] not
supported on this platform
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I also tried 'scilab -nwni' to verify it was 6.0.0 I was running:-

Scilab 6.0.0 (Feb 14 2017, 12:49:55)

--> quit

So now I'm not sure what to try :-(

Dear Paul!

Seems to be incompatibility between upstream (Scilab.org) and GNU/Linux
distributions.

You can install scilab 6.0.0-1 packages from 18.04 LTS to your 17.10
as described
on AskUbuntu .

I tried changing the thirdparty/java link to point to my system java
and/or moving the lib/thirdparty/libz* files as suggested in the
bugzilla discussion but got exactly the same results as reported by
adhefe (is that you?).  I also tried completely uninstalling all
system java packages and so just relying on the scilab-6.0.0 tarfile
java but the error message remains as I reported initially.
Reinstalling the system java didn't change anything either (which BTW

Unfortunately Ubuntu 17.10 still seems to be on Scilab 5.5.2.  I tried
compiling the latest source from git but get stuck during ./configure
with something else I don't understand:-

  configure: error: ARPACK library found, but seems not to work
properly. Please make sure you are using arpack-ng

Not sure if this is a known problem, haven't had chance to go into it yet.

There seems to be little or no interest at all on this issue by scilab 
developers.


The only reply/workaround was provided by Clement David in the post you 
mention on Bugzilla, but it did not worked for me.


If you can count on a distro's builded version  of scilab 6.0, you have 
the option to install it.
