[Solved] MATLAB install hangs

When I run the install script, matlab hangs indefinitely, with or without sudo.

How should I solve this?

Edit: the errors thrown by MATLABWindow is as follows:

The only MATLAB package I see in Portage is an Emacs major mode, which does not seem like what you are using. From where did you get this?

Unzipping the files and replace the libstdc++ solved the issue. Marking as solved, I will add a wiki tip for this

If you are a MATLAB user AND Wayland... could you try simulink please?
There is something not right with r2023a and Wayland and it segfaults very quickly in trying to browse the simulink lib

Libfreetype is another bundled lib that can cause issues
