So to update my own inquiry - as far as I can make out theres no solution to
this problem. Or at least, I havent been able to fix it.
Hello,

Did you try using the last nightly from the 6.x-branch, like I suggested two days ago?

https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/2/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/www.scilab.org/en/development/nightly_builds/branch60

Did it work?
If it worked, it means this is not an unsolved problem, it is just a matter of getting this fix to an official scilab release and wait for it to be packaged by your distro.
It took already a lot of time to officially package Scilab 6.0.1 instead of Scilab 5.5.2  in Ubuntu. I am not sure that 6.0.2 will be the next (6.1, likely). These problems really don't serve the reputation of Scilab...

S.

Cheers,

Antoine

I'm not the only person with this problem - theres an  Ubuntu stackexchange
thread with a suggested fix here
<https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/2/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/askubuntu.com/questions/1029163/how-to-get-scilab-6-0-1-working-on-ubuntu-18-04-lts/1029164> by N0rbert which might prove useful for other people with issues of simply getting Scilab to work, but does not solve my issue of ATOMS not updating or
displaying an up to date package list.

The HDF5 thing is a known issue and is on the bugtracker here thanks to
N0rbert:

I have to admit I have a hard time with believing that this issue has been
allowed to persist for so long with the current most widespread linux
distribution out there.

Running an atomsInstall command doesnt work either:

--> atomsInstall("coselica")
Scanning repository https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/1/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/atoms.scilab.org/6.0 ... Done

atomsDESCRIPTIONget: save
('/home/chris/.Scilab/scilab-6.0.1/.atoms/packages') has failed.

I dont know if its significant or not, but in
/usr/share/scilab/modules/atoms/etc/ , in the "repositories" text file, the url for the atoms repository for 6.0 (https://antispam.utc.fr/proxy/2/c3RlcGhhbmUubW90dGVsZXRAdXRjLmZy/atoms.scilab.org/6.0/) returns
a 443 forbidden error.

Its late here but the next thing on my list to do tomorrow is to download
the package zips manually and installing via atomsInstall('pathtozip').
