FortiClient on Fedora 29 doesn't start

I've just installed FortiClient on Fedora 29 but when I try to start the program nothing happens. I tried to start it from the command line and see any errors associated but this is the only output I got: Segmentation fault (core dumped). 

 

Any ideas of why is not working and what can I do to start it?

 

Thanks.

    I've have the same issue on Debian 10.

    I've done strace, but can not insert here so you can see it in link > https://pastebin.com/HfmkpFnb

     

    Maybe some help?

    I had the same problem with Fedora 29 with KDE Desktop.

    FortiClient-linux-x64 issue a "Segmentation fault" error.

    I used this repo https://repo.fortinet.com/repo/centos/7/os/x86_64/fortinet.repo for my install as described in https://www.forticlient.com/repoinfo page on a fresh install.

    Any help would be appreciated...

    I have the same problem for Arch, due to segmentation fault FortiClient does not start. As far as I can concur with stack trace, FortiClient cannot locate libraries inside the /lib folder. Such as

     

    "

    openat(AT_FDCWD, "/opt/forticlient/gui/FortiClient-linux-x64/libgdk-3.so.0", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

    "

     

    I am guessing creating a symlink for each one of the lib files might help, however  there are awful lot and some are supposed to be in ./lib/tls/haswell/ folder, which I have no idea where to get these lib files.

     

    I have attached strace output here https://pastebin.com/6L2guDA7

     

    Please help.
