Overview
Intel Quartus Prime, formerly Altera Quartus II, is an FPGA IDE for Intel/Altera's FPGAs and CPLDs. Different version ranges of the software support various generations of their products.

Installing
Quartus II 13.0sp1
Ubuntu 20.04
The installer won't launch unless you install 32-bit libc:
sudo apt-get install libc6-i386
You can then download and run the installer:
cd ~/Downloads wget -c https://download.altera.com/akdlm/software/acdsinst/13.0sp1/232/ib_tar/Quartus-web-13.0.1.232-linux.tar mkdir quartus_inst cd quartus_inst tar xf ~/Downloads/Quartus-web-13.0.1.232-linux.tar ./setup.sh
It will ask you questions about what it should install. You'll definitely want to install the 64-bit edition, the appropriate device pack, and probably also ModelSim Starter Edition. Here is an example of choosing everything (except for the non-free ModelSim):
Select the components you want to install Quartus II Web Edition (Free) [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Quartus II Software (includes Nios II EDS) (4424MB) : Y (Cannot be edited) Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Quartus II Software 64-bit support (1090MB) [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Quartus II Help (627.9MB) [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Devices [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Devices - Arria II (482.8MB) [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Devices - Cyclone II/III/IV (615.2MB) [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Devices - Cyclone V (751.8MB) [Y/n] : y Quartus II Web Edition (Free) - Devices - MAX II/V, MAX 3000/7000 (9.1MB) [Y/n] : y ModelSim-Altera Starter Edition (Free) (3547.1MB) [Y/n] : y ModelSim-Altera Edition (3547.1MB) [y/N] : n Is the selection above correct? [Y/n]: y
Later it will ask you a few post-installation things:
Create shortcuts on Desktop [Y/n]: y Launch Quartus II (64bit) [Y/n]: n Provide your feedback at http://software.altera.com/feedback/13.0sp1/installer [Y/n]: n
Once installed, the application won't launch without libpng12, and libpng16 is what ships with Ubuntu. Luckily there is a PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linuxuprising/libpng12 sudo apt update sudo apt install libpng12-0
You will also want to launch Quartus using the --64bit command line option. If you install the 64-bit edition and choose to create a desktop launcher (shortcut), it will both pass that option and set the working directory to the folder containing the quartus script. To run it manually from the command, replicate the same conditions:
cd ~/altera/13.0sp1/quartus/bin ./quartus --64bit
For Quartus to be able to access the USB Blaster with proper permissions, udev rules need to be set up:
echo 'ATTR{idVendor}=="09fb", ATTR{idProduct}=="6001", MODE="666"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/altera-usb-blaster.rules
Taken from:
http://www.armadeus.org/wiki/index.php?title=Quartus_installation_on_Linux#USB-Blaster
Debian 10 (buster)
The steps requires as the same as for Ubuntu 20.04, with the exception of being unable to use the Ubuntu PPA for libpng12. Debian 8 (jessie) was the last version to have libpng12. The libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb package can be unpacked, and then the appropriate .so files moved into Quartus's installation directory.

Debian -- Package Download Selection -- libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb (the 64-bit package download page)
# download and unpack the Debian package mkdir libpng12_files cd libpng12_files wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libp/libpng/libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb ar x libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb tar xf data.tar.xz # move the shared library files into the Quartus folder mv lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.* ~/altera/13.0sp1/quartus/linux64/ # clean up cd .. rm -rf libpng12_files
