Help. Pixinsight will not load after following the Linux installation instructions. I have PI installed on my iMac but built a desktop specifically for PI so this install would be my second (keeping the app on the Mac as well). Here's what I did:
1) I copied the pixinsight-license file from my Mac and placed it in my /home/mike directory. The file name does not contain the preceding leading dot character.
2) I logged into PI software distribution and downloaded the Linux tar file
3) I then created a "pi-install" directory in /home/mike and moved the .tar file to the /home/mike/pi-install directory
4) I then proceeded to follow the "tar -xzf" command as listed on PI installation notes
5) I then ran the "sudo ./installer" command and typed "yes" to installing PI. Below is the output from my terminal window:

Please wait while PixInsight is being installed...
* Previous PixInsight installation removed.
* PixInsight installation completed.
I went into the Linux Mint menu, All Applications, and selected the Pixinsight icon. The application did not load.
I typed PixInsight in my terminal and received the following message:
/opt/PixInsight/bin/PixInsight: /opt/PixInsight/bin/lib/libz.so.1: version `ZLIB_1.2.9' not found (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng16.so.16)
What am I missing? Help...
