    please update ubuntu and try again, if the above steps didn't install magic.

    If it does not work even after updating, then try to install the packages required for magic (mentioned in one of the previous blogs) using synaptic package manager itself ( you can type the package name in the space provided, and 'mark for installation' and install them). Try installing magic after that. Every time I install it, I encounter a new problem. But ultimately it will work somehow. After installing, try drawing a layout and see if you can extract the netlist.

    hi all,
    Now you can install MAGIC directly from 'synaptic package manager'. No need for all these steps

VIS & VL2MV

By
18/01/2016: -----------     Installing VIS model checker     ----------------------------         Download from: http://vlsi.colorado.edu/~vis/vis_files_2.4.html         Note: First do the installation of glu and then install vis or vl2mv (order doesn't matter)         Installation: Follow the steps in the VIS README file in http://vlsi.colorado.edu/~vis/vis_files_2.4.html         Pitfalls: Dont extract the vis and glu .tar.gz files using gui. Instead use the commands given below             % gzip -dc /tmp/glu-2.4.tar.gz | tar xf -             % gzip -dc /tmp/vis-2.4.tar.gz | tar xf -         Setting environment for VIS             set VIS_LIBRARY_PATH=$cwd/share     Installing vl2mv:     ----------------         Follow instructions in the README file in http://vlsi.colorado.edu/~vis/vis_files_2.4.html         "make check" will fail since the vl2mv-2.4/examples folder is empty. Don't worry about that
