Hello, Here is what I did in Ubuntu 18.10 to get scilab 6.0 nightly build to work (it also suffers from the missing libgfortran): - download the last nighlty build of the 6.0 branch, - untar it, - sudo apt-get install libgfortran3, - run scilab from the terminal, - success!
Could you use the same approach to solve your problems?
