I am trying to install Maya 2019 on my Debian 10 destop. Runing comand ./setup gave me this: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Where and how to get libpng12.so.0?

libpng12.so.0 is missing
Re: libpng12.so.0 is missing
It is not any way advisable to install third party packages, outside debian repos.
https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian
If you absolutely need that package, you could create symbolic link named lippng12.so.0 which points to Buster's libpng16-16.

Why are you asking us? Maya has system requirements page:
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/ ... -2019.html
They officially support only RHEL/Centos 7 Linux.

Wow. Thanks for the link. That is very sad. Will think now what to do. Because I need Maya 2019 for sure on my Debian.Wheelerof4te wrote:Why are you asking us? Maya has system requirements page:

Ran this: "sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng16.so.16 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0" and it was linked, but after launching ./setup gives this:arzgi wrote:It is not any way advisable to install third party packages, outside debian repos.

./setup-bin: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0: version `PNG12_0' not found (required by /home/username/Desktop/Autodesk_Maya_2019_Linux_64bit/libQtGui.so.4).
Looks like Maya still wants only original lippng12.so.0. I am sure there will be noting wrong if I will install libpng12.so.0 from CentOS 7.5.
Does anybody know bash command for Debian for installing it from CentOS repository?

Re: libpng12.so.0 is missing
There isn't one. It's your system to experiment with, but you'd be better off to manually download and try to install the deb from Jessie: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libpng12-0
with apt or gdebi on the command line, so it will be rejected if incompatible. Gdebi's GUI seems to be partly broken as it is in Buster.
Sometimes you can mix and match packages. I just found out I could use Buster's rustc and cargo packages in a Stretch pbuilder chroot (with just one simple additional backport! that's already in stretch-backports) to build the latest Waterfox release, which is based on Firefox 68, and the resulting Waterfox package runs fine on vanilla Stretch.
This means it's very probably possible to build a Firefox 68 package on Stretch, too.
