Howto install Maya 7.0 under Linux
Derived from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66859
Install the following programs, in case you don't already have them:
apt-get install csh alien
Copy over all rpm installation files to a local directory. We need to convert the rpm-packages to debian format using alien. Change to the directory that holds your rpms and run:
for i in *.rpm; do sudo alien -cv $i; done
This will take some time. To make Maya install without problems later, we need to create the following link, even though /usr/aw doesn't exist yet:
sudo ln -s /usr/aw /aw
Now we're ready to install Maya: (Change the filenames according to your version. Also have a look at the update at the end of this howto.)
sudo dpkg -i awcommon-server_<version>.deb sudo dpkg -i awcommon_<version>_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i maya7-<version>_i386.deb
Copy the licensefile over to /var/flexlm (create this directory if it doesn't exist):
mkdir /var/flexlm sudo cp aw.dat /var/flexlm
Make sure Maya has read-access to this file. I didn't need to install aksusbd*.deb. You should be able to run Maya now:
Troubleshooting
In case you get the error "Can't Find libXp.so.6", you need to install libxp6 (thanks to Rixeh for this):
apt-get install libxp6
