This means that if the proprietary installation binary breaks something on your system, it will be much more likely to error out (or at least warn you and give you a chance to control-C) instead of silently finishing. However, the advantage of installing this through portage is that the proprietary installation binary runs in portage's sandbox to install into a temporary directory, and then before the files are merged into your actual filesystem portage checks for file conflicts.If you don't want to go through all of the formalities of installing through portage, you can just run the shell commands in this case it might be simpler to refer to the original guide by dries007.This guide assumes you have created a local overlay see this Gentoo guide on making your own overlay. This guide provides an ebuild that you can use to install Quartus Prime (Lite Edition) and ModelSim 17.1 in Gentoo.

This is currently a work in progress translation of dries007's Arch install guide into a Gentoo install guide. You should be able to start the quartus/bin/quartus program in the installation folder (I added a script, quartus.sh, in my ~/bin/ folder that launches the quartus binary).Quartus Prime Light 17.1 and ModelSim 17.1 (Starter / Free Edition) for (Gentoo) Linux $DOWNLOADDIR/components/QuartusHelpSetup-$n \

Then repeat the process for the following two commands: $DOWNLOADDIR/components/ModelSimSetup-$n \ Check with top to see if the QuartusLiteSetup program is still running or not. disable-components quartus_help,modelsim_ase,modelsim_ae \Īfter running for a while, this may hang. tmp/quartus, ~/intelFPGA_lite/17.1 and 17.1.0.590): $DOWNLOADDIR/components/QuartusLiteSetup-$n \ to /tmp/quartus, and then run the following command (replace $DOWNLOADDIR, and $INSTALLDIR and $VER with sutitable values, e.g. Start by unpacking the Quartus installer, e.g. The solution is to run the installer in unattended headless mode (I found a tip by Jonathan here), and install the different components in separate steps.

Download the source code from sourceforge (select a suitable version and tar archive).

Install build-essential (to get gcc etc): sudo apt install build-essential.

The simplest way is to build and install libpng12 from source (requires build-essential).

The software needs libpng12, which is not distributed with Ubuntu 17.10.

The installer does not terminate properly, which seems to leave it in an unlicensed state.

Installing the Intel® Quartus® Prime Lite edition software (the free Intel/Altera FPGA design software suite) for Ubuntu 17.10 is not trivial. Hopefully this article is now superfluous (unless you need to install older version of Quartus onto older versions of Ubuntu). UPDATE: The new Intel® Quartus® Prime Lite 18.1 installs without any problems under Ubuntu 18.04 (LTS).
