Upgrade to latest Powershell #16

Closed natea11 closed 11 months ago

natea11 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I installed this repo and it worked fine but it said I needed to upgrade Powershell.

I ran: wine choco upgrade powershell-core

Then I could not run wine anymore.

Is it possible to upgrade to the latest Powershell?

Thank you for the help.

Hi,

Unfortunately PowerShell versions above 7.1.5. do not work in wine. It should however work when you use Wine-Staging; that has a patch for this wine-bug that works around the bug.

I pinned the version to 7.1.5 so that it should work both in wine and wine-staging, but maybe I can add a warning that one shouldn't upgrade poweshell-core. I'll have a look.

Regards

Hi,

In the next release (wine-8.19) the aforementioned wine-bug is fixed (fix went in two days ago), so with that version (comes out next week) you should also be able to upgrade to newer wine-versions (above 7.1.5). So for now I consider this as fixed

Regards
