Or, if you receive subfield errors (in freesurfer 7) indicating GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined, try updating a few files with the following command.

On centos: yum -y install libXt libXext ncurses-compat-libs On ubuntu: apt-get -y install libxt-dev libxext-dev libncurses5 If any of the matlab binaries error due to missing system libraries, try ensuring that the following are installed on your system.

If the programs produce missing library errors. NOTE: If the fs_install_mcr script is not available in your freesurfer distribution, it can be downloaded by running the following command:Ĭd $FREESURFER_HOME/bin & curl -o fs_install_mcr & chmod +x fs_install_mcr To download the runtime for FS version 6, please install MCR 8.0 (R2012b) by running:

To download the runtime for FS version 7, please install MCR 8.4 (R2014b) by running: The freesurfer command fs_install_mcr can be used to install this package. The MCR allows users to run distributed matlab-compiled programs without paying for a matlab license. A few freesurfer modules, like fsfast and the subfield/nuclei segmentation tools, require the matlab runtime package (MCR).
