You can then download and run the installer:
<pre>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</pre>
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):
<pre>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</pre>
Later it will ask you a few post-installation things:
<pre>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</pre>


Once installed, the application won't launch without libpng12, and libpng16 is what ships with Ubuntu. Luckily there is a PPA:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install libpng12-0</pre>
You will also want to launch Quartus using the <code>--64bit</code> 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 <code>quartus</code> script. To run it manually from the command, replicate the same conditions:
<pre>cd ~/altera/13.0sp1/quartus/bin
./quartus --64bit</pre>
For Quartus to be able to access the USB Blaster with proper permissions, udev rules need to be set up:
<pre>echo 'ATTR{idVendor}=="09fb", ATTR{idProduct}=="6001", MODE="666"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/altera-usb-blaster.rules</pre>

==== 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 <code>libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb</code> package can be unpacked, and then the appropriate <code>.so</code> files moved into Quartus's installation directory.
[https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libpng12-0 Debian -- Details of package libpng12-0 in jessie] (the old package)
[https://packages.debian.org/jessie/amd64/libpng12-0/download Debian -- Package Download Selection -- libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb] (the 64-bit package download page)
<pre># 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</pre>
