I have Ubuntu 18.04 (that is not listed here) but I have libcurl4 and the installation has an error:

@jackfido PowerShell Core will support Ubuntu 18.04 since 6.1.0 version. You can test with latest nightly builds. 6.1.0 version is based on .Net Core 2.1 and haven't curl dependency.

The link you provided doesn't show the version for Ubuntu 18.04, or you mean to use the Debian version instead.

By the way, I just notice someone in Yammer mention that WSL has the 18.04 version available on the Microsoft Store.

I think is becoming important to address the importance of having PowerShell Core available for 18.04.

@MaximoTrinidad We are ready to publish a package for 18.04 in Preview3 time.
