oneAPI MKL 2022.2.1 installation on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

[Martin__Paul]

Hi, I am trying to install MKL on Ububtu 18.04 via apt-get but am presented with a dependency error:

l_onemkl_p_2022.2.1.16993_offline$ sudo sh ./install.sh
/MKL/l_onemkl_p_2022.2.1.16993_offline/bootstrapper: error while loading shared libraries: libQt6Core5Compat.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

How can I proceed here?  The installation notes state 18.04 LTS is supported.  Is there a non-GUI install I can try to bypass the need for speciic Qt libraries?

Thanks.

Worked around this by using the online installer and launching as sudo from the root usr folder.  Original issue not helped by using an Ububtu VM with host-mapped drives leading to permissions problems that sometimes manifest as other issues.
