Problem installing on Linux Mint: Unhandled exception

Feedback Bugs & Issues
1

I am using Linux Mint 21.1. When I try to install using the downloaded installer, I get the following error after agreeing to the EULA:

Do you accept the license terms? [yes|no]
[no] >>> yes

Anaconda3 will now be installed into this location:
/home/kurdtpage/anaconda3

  • Press ENTER to confirm the location
  • Press CTRL-C to abort the installation
  • Or specify a different location below

[/home/kurdtpage/anaconda3] >>>
PREFIX=/home/kurdtpage/anaconda3

File “multiprocessing/connection.py”, line 256, in recv
TypeError: init() missing 1 required positional argument: ‘msg’
‘’’

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Hi, sorry to hear you’re hitting this issue! Which installer are you using?

I have Linux Mint 21 Vanessa and get the same install failure for:

bash Anaconda3-2023.07-1-Linux-x86_64.sh

I have already installed the suggested following:

sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-glx libegl1-mesa libxrandr2 libxrandr2 libxss1 libxcursor1 libxcomposite1 libasound2 libxi6 libxtst6

But I get with the anaconda install attempt:

Unpacking payload …

Has then been resolved? I’m having the same issue.
