I get this error whenever I try to install autodesk maya on ubuntu 15.10. I would appreciate some help.

2It's throwing an RPM error. You might have picked up the installer for Red Hat/Fedora. – Feb 28 '16 at 19:47

You have to convert rpm into deb to do that, just copy all the commands below and paste it on your terminal one by one
sudo apt-get install csh tcsh libaudiofile-dev libglw1-mesa elfutils gamin libglw1-mesa-dev mesa-utils xfstt ttf-liberation ttf-mscorefonts-installer xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi alien
sudo mkdir /usr/tmp
sudo chmod 777 /usr/tmp
sudo alien -cv *.rpm
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.5.2.0 /usr/autodesk/maya2016/lib/libtiff.so.3
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /usr/autodesk/maya2016/lib/libcrypto.so.10
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 /usr/autodesk/maya2016/lib/libssl.so.10
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/R11/lib64/
chmod +x setup sudo ./setup
After this you will put your serial number and all, at the end it will still show you error, same error by you have already installed those packages, so it wont matter.
sudo /usr/autodesk/maya2016/bin/maya
and at the end I'm stuck at this error "/usr/autodesk/maya2016/bin/maya.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
Its a dependency error and i am trying to solve this one, no luck so far. if you find can go further, don't forget to post here :)
