I just updated to Fedora 26 and I am still running matlab from the command line. When I type
simulink
the introduction window to simulink does not appear, but instead the warning
Warning: Unable to start MATLABWindow process
In sltemplate.ui.StartPage/showStartPageFallback
In sltemplate.ui.StartPage.show
In simulink (line 40)
is issued. I found this question and tried the proposed commands which gives
./MATLABWindow: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libharfbuzz.so.0: undefined symbol: FT_Get_Var_Blend_Coordinates
for me. Selinux and libsepol are both installed. Similar to other findings on the web I can open simulink by opening the desktop and there directly open my simulink model. So only the welcome page is broken. Any help much appreciated!

Hello, i think this problem is about freetype library, you can remove the MATLAB's own freetype libraries and create a symbolic link from your lib64 folder.
In your MATLAB directory,
/usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a/bin/glnxa64/
Delete libfreetype.so.6 and libfreetype.so.6.11.1 after backing up these files,
than create a symbolic link with the following commands,
ln -s /usr/lib64/libfreetype.so.6 /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a/bin/glnxa64/libfreetype.so.6
ln -s /usr/lib64/libfreetype.so.6.13.0 /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a/bin/glnxa64/libfreetype.so.6.13.0

You are ingenious! Since I still use MatR2016a, and I only found libfreetype.so.6 and 6.11 in my matlab path I tried symlinking just this one - and as predicted works like a charm! Thanks very much!
