Possibly. Let's hope that project develops cleanly: it's long overdue.

Meanwhile, MathWorks should not be criticised. They are prepared to support
MatLab on Linux, provided it's being used on a distribution they've checked
it out on. This happens to be RedHat. MatLab might be *expected* to work on
most, if not all, decent Linux distributions, but given the diversity of
configurations around it's unreasonable to expect it to be *guaranteed*.
