I'm trying to install MatLab on Ubuntu 20.04.
Running
./install
in the terminal does bring out the installation window but then the installer doesn't have the permission to write on usr/local
So i need to run
sudo ./install
but this does nothing, the process doesn't do anything and doesn't stop. It doesn't even have an error message.
I've tried changing the permissions on the file with chmod but it doesn't anything.
Where could the problem come from ?

Running the following code in terminal (from ./install directory) worked for me:
xhost +SI:localuser:root
