mathworks/matlab-deps repository overview

⁠MATLAB Dependencies

These images include the dependencies required to run MATLAB®, Simulink®, and other MathWorks products.

Note: These images do not include MATLAB. To use a prebuild MATLAB container image, see the MATLAB Container Image⁠ on Docker Hub. To build your own MATLAB container image, follow these instructions⁠.

⁠Base Operating System Update Policy

The default image for each MATLAB release is based on the latest Ubuntu Long Term Support base image that is supported by that release. To see the supported Ubuntu versions, see the MATLAB and Simulink Requirements⁠ page for the Linux system requirements of that MATLAB release.

To use an image based on a fixed Ubuntu base image instead, use the appropriate tag by referring to the table.

When a base image is no longer supported by Ubuntu, the 'matlab-deps' image based on these images will be removed from Docker Hub. You can however still build your own container images using the source Dockerfiles available in the MathWorks Container Images Repository⁠.

⁠Base Dependency Lists

• The base OS package list required by a given MATLAB release and base OS is published in this repository at the stable path:

  matlab-deps/<release>/<base_os>/base-dependencies-<arch>.txt
  

  Copy

• This naming applies uniformly to every supported release from R2019b onward. The legacy base-dependencies.txt (without arch suffix) is kept in place for releases R2019b through R2025b so that pre-existing URLs continue to resolve, but new consumers should adopt the suffixed URL.

• <arch>=amd64 is available for every supported release. <arch>=arm64 is available only from R2026a onward; requesting base-dependencies-arm64.txt for an older release returns HTTP 404, because those MATLAB releases do not support arm64.
