The installer runs, and then prints out the following:

<pre>

On the target computer, append the following to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable:

/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/runtime/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/bin/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/sys/os/glnxa64:/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/lib/amd64/native_threads:/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/lib/amd64/server:/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/lib/amd64

Next, set the XAPPLRESDIR environment variable to the following value:

/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v82/X11/app-defaults
