I am having a similar issue; I have matlab 2016b installed on my laptop (OS=Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) and I have installed the Arduino packages in matlab that are found by going to "add-ons->Hardware SUpport Packages" and I am getting the following message when I try to use this command in the command window "a = arduino('/dev/ttyACM0','Mega2560')":
You need the MATLAB Arduino support package before you can use this feature. Open Support Package Installer to install support for additional MATLAB hardware.
Here's what I get when I use the commands suggested by Prateek:
>> rehash toolboxcache
>> matlabshared.supportpkg.getInstalled
Name Version Base Product
------------------------------------------- ------- ------------
MATLAB Support Package for Arduino Hardware 16.2.1
Has anybody who has faced a similar issue offer any guidance here?

Hi.
Can you please execute `reshash toolboxcache` followed by `matlabshared.supportpkg.getInstalled` and share the output here ?
