For Older Verions

Install from wsl-translinux

wslu is part of wsl-translinux apt repository.

Following the guidelines Here to add the repository. Then you can simply run sudo apt install wslu to install wslu.

However, with lack of support, I moved my packages to my own apt repository.

Install version 1.2

git clone --branch v1.2 https://github.com/patrick330602/wslu.git ~/.wslu
cd ~/.wslu
./configure -i

Install version 1.1/1.0

git clone --branch v1.1 https://github.com/patrick330602/wslu.git
#for 1.0: change 1.1 to 1.0
cd wslu
sudo make install

To uninstall, run sudo make uninstall

Install pre-releases

directly run wslu-dev after cloning.
