v0.2.0 alpha release of Open PowerShell

Supports Windows, OS X, Ubuntu 14.04, and CentOS 7.1.

Installation Instructions

Once the package is installed, powershell will be in your path, ready to be launched from a terminal. It will read ~/.powershell/profile.ps1 for your user profile, and /usr/local/share/powershell/PSL_profile.ps1 for the system profile. Similarly, it will search ~/.powershell/Modules and /usr/local/share/powershell/Modules for user and system modules.

Ubuntu

Using a stock Ubuntu 14.04 image, download the powershell_0.2.0-1_amd64.deb file, and then execute the following:

sudo apt-get install libunwind8 libicu52
sudo dpkg -i powershell_0.2.0-1_amd64.deb

CentOS

Using a stock CentOS 7.1 image, download the powershell-0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm file, and then execute the following:

sudo yum install powershell-0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm

OS X

Using an OS X 10.11 machine, download the powershell-0.2.0.pkg file, double-click it, and follow the prompts.

  • .NET Core packages are build 23907

Initial alpha release of Open PowerShell

Supports Windows, OS X, and Ubuntu 14.04. The Linux package includes a patched copy of CoreCLR to address a bug that's not quite made it to NuGet packages.

On OS X, install by double-clicking the .pkg file and following the prompts.

On Ubuntu, install the dependencies with sudo apt-get install libunwind8 libicu52, then install the .deb file with sudo dpkg -i powershell_0.1.0-1_amd64.deb.

A symlink to the powershell executable will be placed in /usr/local/bin, while PowerShell and its runtime will be placed in /usr/local/share/powershell.

PowerShell will load modules in /usr/local/share/powershell/Modules, and will source /usr/local/share/powershell/PSL_profile.ps1. A user profile placed at ~/.powershell/profile.ps1 will also be sourced.

Windows packages are not yet supported.

These packages do not install OMI, so remoting is not supported.
