Questa on QPP 26.1 not supported on Ubuntu 24.04?

Hello,

I'm running into the following error when trying to run a simulation using Questa Starter Edition as part of QPP 26.1 on Ubuntu Linux 24.04:

** Fatal: (vsim-3828) Could not link 'vsim_auto_compile.so': cmd = '/opt/altera_pro/26.1/questa_fse/gcc-10.3.0-linux_x86_64/bin/g++ -shared -fPIC -B/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu ....

There are many linker errors that follow, so it seems there are library incompatibilities.   

I have attached the QPP 26.1 SW Support Matrix, and I see that Questa isn't supported on Ubuntu 24.04.   Before I start trying to fix this problem myself, I would appreciate learning about known workarounds or plans to issue a patch, so Questa wll be supported with Ubuntu 24.04. 

Note that I have found some old stack overflow and forum posts about deleting the Questa local libraries. 

Thank you.

    Hi,

    Please use the supported os for the Questa Simulator. We don't provide workaround or patch for non-supported os
