Installing Vivado on Ubuntu

If the installation hangs on generating installed devices, try the following steps (including a reboot) before re-trying the installation:

sudo apt-get install -y python3-pip

sudo apt-get install -y libstdc++6

sudo apt-get install -y libgtk2.0-0

sudo apt-get install -y dpkg-dev

sudo apt-get install -y libtinfo5 libncurses5

If the previous command did not work, try this:

sudo apt update
wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/ncurses/libtinfo5_6.3-2ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./libtinfo5_6.3-2ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb

Reboot the VM or your PC and try the installation agian.

(Without ibtinfo5 the application will not start and without libncurses5 the simulation will fail)
