    Hi! This thread will be used to post new builds of Unity for Linux, including release notes and known issues.

    THE LATEST AVAILABLE BUILD WILL BE IN THE LAST POST ON THIS THREAD.

    Today, we're releasing the first public build, so this post contains extra information about system requirements and what you can expect. Future releases will also be posted in this thread.

    Installer Types and Supported Systems

    The Unity Editor for Linux is packaged into two types of installers:

    • A .deb package, which can be installed via the Ubuntu Software Center and is expected to work on installations of Ubuntu 12.04 or newer.
    • A platform-agnostic self-extracting shell script, which is designed for other distributions.
    Unity Technologies is providing official support for Ubuntu 12.04 or newer. People are welcome to use other distributions with the understanding that we do not guarantee support.

    Machines also need a modern graphics card with vendor-supported graphics drivers (provided by NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel).

    We do not explicitly support running the Linux editor inside a virtual machine due to limitations related to GPU virtualization (although it does usually work).

    Supported Target Platforms
    The Unity Editor for Linux supports export to the following platforms:
    • Linux / Windows / Mac Standalone
    • Android (additional dependencies needed, see below)
    • WebGL (additional dependencies needed, see below)
    • Tizen (additional dependencies needed, see below)
    • SamsungTV
    • Legacy WebPlayer
    • iOS project deployment (experimental in 5.5 builds)
    Dependencies and Recommended Packages
    The dependencies for Unity itself are:
    • gconf-service
    • lib32gcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1)
    • lib32stdc++6 (>= 4.6)
    • libasound2 (>= 1.0.23)
    • libc6 (>> 2.15)
    • libc6-i386 (>= 2.15)
    • libcairo2 (>= 1.6.0)
    • libcap2 (>= 2.10)
    • libcups2 (>= 1.4.0)
    • libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.2.14)
    • libexpat1 (>= 1.95.8)
    • libfontconfig1 (>= 2.8.0)
    • libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.9)
    • libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1)
    • libgconf-2-4 (>= 2.31.1)
    • libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0)
    • libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1
    • libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.31.8)
    • libglu1-mesa | libglu1
    • libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.24.0)
    • libnspr4 (>= 1.8.0.10)
    • libnss3 (>= 3.14.3)
    • libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.22.0)
    • libstdc++6 (>= 4.6)
    • libx11-6 (>= 2:1.4.99.1)
    • libxcomposite1 (>= 1:0.3-1)
    • libxcursor1 (>> 1.1.2)
    • libxdamage1 (>= 1:1.1)
    • libxext6
    • libxfixes3
    • libxi6 (>= 2:1.2.99.4)
    • libxrandr2 (>= 2:1.2.99.2)
    • libxrender1
    • libxtst6
    • zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4)
    • debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0
    • npm
    The Ubuntu Software Center will install these automatically if using the .deb package. If using the self-extracting shell script (or another distribution), you're on your own.

    To export players to certain targets, there are other dependencies:

    For WebGL:

    • ffmpeg | libav-tools
    • nodejs
    • java6-runtime
    • gzip
    For Android and Tizen:
    • java7-jdk
    These recommended packages are included in the Recommends section of the .deb package.

    We're also not currently bundling the dependencies for MonoDevelop (and doing so is a bit complicated), so the easiest way to ensure you can run the bundled MonoDevelop is to first install the upstream MonoDevelop from the Ubuntu Software Center.

    Reporting Bugs

    To report issues, please use the Editor's Help menu > 'Report a Bug' feature: this opens the Unity Bug Reporter, which sends us feedback and issues with the Linux Editor to our Issue Tracker: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/. This is the primary method for providing feedback and reporting issues with the Linux Editor.

    Crashes will also launch the Bug Reporter, and you should use this to submit a bug in this case (the bug reporter attaches stacktrace and other information we need to investigate crashes). After submitting your bug with the Bug Reporter, please post on the forum with the case number you receive in your confirmation mail.


    And finally, here is the information for today's release:

    Build #2015082501

    Official Installer for 64-bit Ubuntu Linux: See the last post in this thread!



    Unsupported Installer for Other 64-bit Distributions: See the last post in this thread!



    Release Notes
    • Initial release
    Known Issues

    The Linux Editor currently has some known issues:

    • The asset store window cannot be docked into the main editor window
    • Drag and drop between separate editor windows (e.g build settings window and main editor window) does not work
    • Drag and drop from outside the application does not work
    • Moving/Dragging undocked editor windows doesn't feel native yet
    • Context menus at the bottom of the screen have unintuitive initial scroll position
    • "Open in Unity" doesn't work when browsing the Asset Store from an external browser
    • Idle CPU usage is higher than it should be.
    • Certain systems may experience "Service unavailable" errors when trying to log in. WORKAROUND: Launch Unity with LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libresolv.so.2 /path/to/Unity (check the path to your local libresolv) (Kudos to spacepluk and the other hardcore investigators!)

    This is an important milestone!
    Not only is this the first beta build for Unity 5.5, but the first Linux editor build shipped from a unified codebase with mainline Unity. That may not sound exciting, but it has a lot of exciting implications. It means that, instead of starting with vanilla Unity and piling thousands of custom changes on top, all of our changes now live in the Unity mainline, where they can be constantly punished by our automated test suites across all of our platforms, and where all of our developers across Unity can easily fix, refactor, and extend Linux editor code alongside everything else. (As an example, the window dragging fix mentioned below was contributed by @shawn .) This also means that your bug reports will be easier to track and test, and the fixes easier to verify.
    In addition, your bug reports will now go directly to the main issue tracker instead of being redirected here to the forum. You're still welcome to post here, and we'll still be reading and responding to your posts - but when you encounter a problem in Unity, Help->Report a Bug will now give you the standard reporting tool for describing the problem and uploading your repro case to us.
