    Hi. I just downloaded the latest version of Unity editor for Linux (Version 2018.1.0b13).
    It downloads all the files it needs and then... "Installation failed" as seen in this screenshot:

    Should I try downloading to the version before this one?

    Are there any errors in the terminal? Do you have all the dependencies? (E.g. libarchive with tar and xz support)

    I opened the downloader with the terminal and this is what appeared:

    Ok, so looking at those messages, I would guess that you don't have the dependencies for libarchive (support for xar, cpio, tar, gzip, and xz/lzma).

    Thanks! No errors now :D I just have one more question: can I use projects from Unity for Windows in Unity for Linux?

    Yes, you should be able to share your projects between platforms.
