Updating Linux
To avoid dependency errors, we recommend updating Linux before installing.
FME on Linux requires many third party packages. These dependencies must be satisfied when FME is installed. The easiest way to satisfy these dependencies is to install FME on a computer that is connected to the internet, allowing packages to be downloaded as needed.
It is possible, however, to manually prepare an offline computer for FME installation.
For more information:
- Ubuntu/Debian: Installing packages without an Internet connection
- Red Hat/CentOS: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/29269
Dependencies can be determined on-demand by using one of the following commands
- Ubuntu/Debian: dpkg -I <package_name>
- Red Hat/CentOS: yum deplist <package_name>
WARNING: If you are accessing local mirrors of public repositories, ensure they match the version of your Linux.
Debian, Ubuntu
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

Ubuntu 14.04 requires an additional repository to supply dependencies. Run either of the following:
apt-get install software-properties-common
apt-add-repository "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-toolchain-r/test/ubuntu trusty main"
apt-get update
or
apt-get install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
