Can't run Synthesis on Arch Linux

[wackbyte]

Description

After installing Synthesis on my machine and looking through the installer script for the installation location, I tried to run it.

~ ➜ /usr/share/Autodesk/Synthesis/Synthesis.x86_64
fish: The file “/usr/share/Autodesk/Synthesis/Synthesis.x86_64” is not executable by this user

So I tried running it again with sudo...

~ ➜ sudo /usr/share/Autodesk/Synthesis/Synthesis.x86_64
Found path: /usr/share/Autodesk/Synthesis/Synthesis.x86_64

A blank fullscreen window appears, and...

fish: “sudo /usr/share/Autodesk/Synthe…” terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)

I didn't get any more output, so I have no idea what the issue could be.

System Information

• Operating System - Arch Linux
• Desktop Environment - GNOME 3.36.0
• Window Manager - Wayland 1.18

This is caused by the same issue in #485 MD5 checksum error

I've updated the latest release to resolve the checksum error which should fix this.

I will note that the only currently supported Linux distribution is Ubuntu 64 bit, but you're welcome to try other distributions.

Thanks!

It installed properly this time, but it still only has a black window that immediately closes.

@jakbyte Is the black window generated by Unity or the shell installation?

In other words, does this occur when launching the Synthesis application or as part of the installer?
