Powershell: Request for PowerShell for ARM64 Ubuntu
Hi
Is there any possibility for creating PowerShell for Ubuntu ARM64 and ARM32?
Thanks,
Micha艂.

@michal5520pl I believe the Raspbian ARM32 build should just work on Ubuntu ARM32 (barring a known crashing issue due to dotnetcore...) as Raspbian is an Ubuntu derivative. We can enable the current build script to support Linux ARM64 so that builds can be produced.

Is there any news on this? I would really like to have PowerShell for ARM64 Linux. I was going to try and build it myself, but you need pwsh already to build according to the instructions.

@slide I'll see if I can look into this later this week just to enable such builds, but it's unlikely we'll be able to support it and have official releases due to lack of hardware to test on

@SteveL-MSFT I'd be happy to help out any way I can. Is there a bootstrapping document that would allow me to build it myself ON my ARM64 system? I'm using the PINE64 board (https://www.pine64.org/) which is a fairly cheap 64-bit ARM setup if you want something.

I have BananaPi W2 with Ubuntu 16.04, so I can also offer help

@SteveL-MSFT Any updates on this? As I mentioned, if I had some bootstrapping information for when I don't already have pwsh available, I'd be happy to try building it on my own.

I'm busy this week prepping for PSConfAsia, I'll see about spending some time after 10/21. If you want to try to get this to work, it should "simply" be a change in builds.psm1 at the root of this repo to support linux-arm64 RID in start-psbuild cmdlet.

I was able to get it to build. I will try and create a PR for PowerShell-Native and PowerShell.

Would the project be open to building debs for arm64 as well? I believe for supports this with the -a parameter
