Install the PowerShell 7.3.8 binary release on a Debian ARM64 Linux box, or Debian ARM64 based WSL. There is no DEB package, yet!

# Create the symbolic link that points to pwsh

a lot of these packages don't seem to work on debian 12, but most of your directions work!

also the 'current' version for powershell is https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v7.5.0/powershell-7.5.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz

and you DO need libicu72!

for powershell. .net stuff works as well, but most of the package version don't seem current.

I no longer update this script, because I use only use Ansible to Install/Update PowerShell and .NET since a while now. But feel free to adopt it ;-)

what is the link to the ansible thing?

Sorry, couldn't resist ;-)
Honestly: Nothing from the Ansible is published yet.

I still consider if I should publich at least some of the playbooks.
