Altera PLL IP Core failed to launch in Quartus 14.1 on Ubuntu 15.04

Hello Guys

I am running Quartus 14.1 on Ubuntu 15.04. It is installed in /home/altera/14.1 path. But the problem is whenever I try to generate Altera PLL IP through IP Catalog, it fails after I press finish. I get the following error

Info: Generating simgen model

Error: Execution of script /tmp/alt6582_3281364987958848321.dir/0002_alterapll_gen/proj.tcl failed

Error: Info: *******************************************************************

...

I would appreciate your help. You can link the solution if someone already has this question answered on this forum

Thanks

    This seems to be something related to Quartus internal. Can you try with the latest Quartus II 15.0 to see if similar issue exist?

    Have the same behaviour with Q15.0.2 on ubuntu 14.04. No problems on windows or CentOs.

    Any ideas?

    in quartus/linux64:

    After "removing" some shared objects (thanks for the help from Altera), i got it running:

    sudo mv libccl_curl_drl.so libccl_curl_drl.so_backup

    sudo mv crashreporter crashreporter_backup

    sudo mv crashreporter.dep crashreporter.dep_backup

    sudo mv libcurl.so.4 libcurl.so.4.backup

    Got some new messages:

    quartus: /opt/altera/15.0/quartus/linux64/libssl.so.1.0.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4)

    quartus: /opt/altera/15.0/quartus/linux64/libssl.so.1.0.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4)

    quartus: /opt/altera/15.0/quartus/linux64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4)

    These can be ignored or "fixed" by forcing quartus to use the ubuntu libs:

    sudo mv libssl.so.1.0.0 libssl.so.1.0.0.backup

    sudo mv libcrypto.so.1.0.0 libcrypto.so.1.0.0.backup
