SW4STM32 and SW4Linux fully supports the STM32MP1 asymmetric multicore Cortex/A7+M4 MPUs

   With System Workbench for Linux, Embedded Linux on the STM32MP1 family of MPUs from ST was never as simple to build and maintain, even for newcomers in the Linux world. And, if you install System Workbench for Linux in System Workbench for STM32 you can seamlessly develop and debug asymmetric applications running partly on Linux, partly on the Cortex-M4.
You can get more information from the ac6-tools website and download (registration required) various documents highlighting:

"gksudo" requirement for GUI install on Linux

InstallerQuestion says
Warnings (must read) : ... To launch the installer in GUI mode, JavaRE (7 or upper version) and gksudo must be installed.

But Ubuntu 14.04 LTS doesn’t have a clue what “gksudo” is. But “gksu”, which is a “graphical frontend to su” is known by Ubuntu Software Center.

Is the requirement “gksudo”, or is it “gksu” which should be installed?

The installer requires the command “gksudo” to be available which is provided by the package “gksu”:

$ dpkg-query -L gksu
[...]
/usr/bin/gksu
/usr/bin/gksudo
[...]


AFAIK this is necessary to install the STLink udev rules for USB.


I am using a special version of Ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64-mac-mattgradient.com.iso
This version allows me to install Ubuntu to a MacBook 2008 white.
It has taken me many tries in creating a DVD’s to get it right.
You have to download the following .debs in order to fix the gksudo missing problem during
installation.
gksu_2.0.2-9+b1_amd64.deb
libcanberra-gtk-module_0.30-3_amd64.deb
libgksu2-0_2.0.13_pre1-9+b1_amd64.deb
libgnome-keyring0_3.12.0-1+b2_amd64.deb
libgnome-keyring-common_3.12.0-1_all.deb
libgtop-2.0-10_2.34.2-1_amd64.deb
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/amd64/Question for a 64-bit OS

Please note that this installation of Ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64-mac-mattgradient.com.iso
will completely wipe out the OSx operating system.


gksu package is not available anymore in Debian, and thus no graphical installation is possible (It has been removed in 2018)
