Following commands create a shared system-wide install in /opt/q13
The last version that supports MAX7000 (and thus ATF15xx) is 13.0sp1
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/software-kit/711790/intel-quartus-ii-web-edition-design-software-version-13-0sp1-for-linux.html
The variables $Q and $M will be set at the top here but used throughout,
so only paste these commands in the same session where Q and M are set!
$ export Q=/opt/q13
$ export M=${Q}/modelsim_ase

libfreetype
(arch pkg because the oldest ubuntu package is 2.5.2, too new and vsim segfaults)

At this point vsim should be runnable by itself outside of Quartus.
Run it via the bin/vsim symlink,
which runs the top level wrapper vco,
which will set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and run the actual binary linux/vsim
$ ${M}/bin/vsim
To get ModelSim working from within Quartus requires a little more...
add LD_LIBRARY_PATH to quartus/adm/qenv.sh
https://gist.github.com/robodhruv/e2c0945cc78006b00d4206846bdb7657?permalink_comment_id=3311682#gistcomment-3311682
sudo sed -i '/^export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/a LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${QUARTUS_ROOTDIR}/../modelsim_ase/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH' ${Q}/quartus/adm/qenv.sh
Launch Quartus and set the path to modelsim in EDA Tool Options
Tools -> Options -> EDA Tool Options -> ModelSim-Altera: /opt/q13/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem
Test it from within Quartus:
$ q13
Tools -> Run Simulation Tool -> Gate Level Simulation
