Not all system libraries and fonts required to run Maya are installed by default on all Linux distributions. You can use the dnf package manager's dnf install command to install any libraries and fonts that are missing from your system.
The names of these libraries can vary between Linux distributions.
Important:
- The Maya installer requires additional libraries that may not be listed below. Please review and install the Additional required Linux packages for Autodesk Licensing installation.
- Wayland display is not supported for Maya 2025 licensing. See this support topic (Wayland Display Server Not Supported) for more info and instructions on how to work around the issue.
Required Repositories and Libraries
The package names of these libraries can vary between Linux distributions. For this articles we used Base Rocky Linux 8 and Rocky Linux 9 with "Server with GUI" configuration.
You will need the EPEL repository in order to install some of the required packages.
Use dnf to install and enable the EPEL repository:
sudo dnf install epel-release
To install any package, use sudo dnf install <Package name>
