Package installation instructions ================================= Supports Ubuntu 14.04, CentOS 7.1, and OS X 10.11. 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 `/opt/microsoft/powershell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1` for the host profile. Similarly, it will search `~/.powershell/Modules` and `/opt/microsoft/powershell/Modules` for user and system modules. To place PowerShell in your path, a symlink to the `/opt/microsoft/powershell/powershell` executable is placed at `/usr/bin/powershell`. Ubuntu 14.04 ============ Using a stock Ubuntu 14.04 image, download the `powershell_0.5.0-1_amd64.deb` file, and then execute the following: ```sh sudo apt-get install libunwind8 libicu52 sudo dpkg -i powershell_0.5.0-1_amd64.deb ``` CentOS 7.1 ========== Using a stock CentOS 7.1 image, download the `powershell-0.5.0-1.x86_64.rpm` file, and then execute the following: ```sh sudo yum install powershell-0.5.0-1.x86_64.rpm ``` OS X 10.11 ========== Using an OS X 10.11 machine, download the `powershell-0.5.0.pkg` file, double-click it, and follow the prompts. Or install it from the terminal: ```sh sudo installer -pkg powershell-0.5.0.pkg -target / ``` Note that because OS X is a derivation of BSD, instead of `/opt`, the prefix used is `/usr/local`; thus, `powershell` lives at `/usr/local/microsoft/powershell`, and the symlink is placed at `/usr/local/bin/powershell`. This affects the system modules and profile as well.
