# Package installation instructions
Supports [Ubuntu 14.04][u14], [Ubuntu 16.04][u16], [Debian 8][deb8],
[CentOS 7][cos], [Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7][rhel7], [Arch Linux][arch], [many Linux distributions (AppImage)][lai], and [macOS 10.12][mac].
All packages are available on our GitHub [releases][] page.
All of these steps can be done automatically by the [`download.sh`][download] script.
You should *never* run a script without reading it first!
Please **read the [download][] script first**, and then if you want to run it, use:
```sh
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/master/tools/download.sh)
```
Once the package is installed, run `powershell` from a terminal.

## Ubuntu 14.04
### Installation via Package Repository - Ubuntu 14.04
PowerShell Core, for Linux, is published to package repositories for easy installation (and updates).
This is the preferred method.
```sh
# Import the public repository GPG keys
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -
# Register the Microsoft Ubuntu repository
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/14.04/prod.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/microsoft.list
# Update apt-get
sudo apt-get update
# Install PowerShell
sudo apt-get install -y powershell
# Start PowerShell
powershell
```
After registering the Microsoft repository once as superuser,
from then on, you just need to use `sudo apt-get upgrade powershell` to update it.
### Installation via Direct Download
Using [Ubuntu 14.04][], download the Debian package
`powershell_6.0.0-beta.6-1ubuntu1.14.04.1_amd64.deb`
from the [releases][] page onto the Ubuntu machine.
Then execute the following in the terminal:
```sh
sudo dpkg -i powershell_6.0.0-beta.6-1ubuntu1.14.04.1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f
```
> Please note that `dpkg -i` will fail with unmet dependencies;
> the next command, `apt-get install -f` resolves these
> and then finishes configuring the PowerShell package.

## Arch Linux
PowerShell is available from the [Arch Linux][] User Repository (AUR) as a [release][arch-release] or the [latest development build][arch-git].
Packages in the AUR are community maintained - there is no official support.
For more information on installing packages from the AUR, see the [Arch Linux wiki](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages).
[Arch Linux]: https://www.archlinux.org/download/
[arch-release]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/powershell/
[arch-git]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/powershell-git/
## Linux AppImage
Using a recent Linux distribution,
download the AppImage `PowerShell-6.0.0-beta.6-x86_64.AppImage`
from the [releases][] page onto the Linux machine.
Then execute the following in the terminal:
```bash
chmod a+x PowerShell-6.0.0-beta.6-x86_64.AppImage
./PowerShell-6.0.0-beta.6-x86_64.AppImage
```
The [AppImage][] lets you run PowerShell without installing it.
It is a portable application that bundles PowerShell and its dependencies
(including .NET Core's system dependencies) into one cohesive package.
This package works independently of the user's Linux distribution,
and is a single binary.

## macOS 10.12
### Installation via Homebrew (preferred) - macOS 10.12
[Homebrew][brew] is the missing package manager for macOS.
If the `brew` command is not found,
you need to install Homebrew following [their instructions][brew].
Once you've installed Homebrew, installing PowerShell is easy.
First, install [Homebrew-Cask][cask], so you can install more packages:
```sh
brew tap caskroom/cask
```
Now, you can install PowerShell:
```sh
brew cask install powershell
```
When new versions of PowerShell are released,
simply update Homebrew's formulae and upgrade PowerShell:
```sh
brew update
brew reinstall powershell
```
> Note: because of [this issue in Cask](https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/issues/29301), you currently have to do a reinstall to upgrade.
[brew]: http://brew.sh/
[cask]: https://caskroom.github.io/
### Installation via Direct Download - macOS 10.12
Using macOS 10.12, download the PKG package
`powershell-6.0.0-beta.6-osx.10.12-x64.pkg`
from the [releases][] page onto the macOS machine.
Either double-click the file and follow the prompts,
or install it from the terminal:
```sh
sudo installer -pkg powershell-6.0.0-beta.6-osx.10.12-x64.pkg -target /
```
### Uninstallation - macOS 10.12
If you installed PowerShell with Homebrew, uninstallation is easy:
```sh
brew cask uninstall powershell
```
If you installed PowerShell via direct download,
PowerShell must be removed manually:
```sh
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/bin/powershell /usr/local/microsoft/powershell
```
To uninstall the additional PowerShell paths (such as the user profile path)
please see the [paths][paths] section below in this document
and remove the desired the paths with `sudo rm`.
(Note: this is not necessary if you installed with Homebrew.)
[paths]:#paths
### OpenSSL on macOS
On macOS, .NET Core requires Homebrew's OpenSSL
because the "OpenSSL" system libraries on macOS are not OpenSSL,
as Apple deprecated OpenSSL in favor of their own libraries.
This requirement is not a hard requirement for all of PowerShell.
However, most networking functions (such as `Invoke-WebRequest`)
do require OpenSSL to work properly.
The PowerShell formula for Homebrew includes this OpenSSL as a dependency,
so you if you installed via Homebrew, you shouldn't run into these problems.
If you installed via direct download (or through some means other than Homebrew),
the easiest fix for these issues is to install [Homebrew's OpenSSL][openssl]:
```bash
brew install openssl
brew install curl --with-openssl
```
**Please ignore** .NET Core's installation instructions to manually link the OpenSSL libraries.
This is **not** required for PowerShell as we patch .NET Core's cryptography libraries to find Homebrew's OpenSSL in its installed location.
Again, **do not** run `brew link --force` nor `ln -s` for OpenSSL, regardless of other instructions.
Homebrew previously allowed OpenSSL libraries to be linked to the system library location;
however, this created major security holes and is [no longer allowed][homebrew-patch].
Because .NET Core's 1.0.0 release libraries still look in the prior system location for OpenSSL,
they will fail to work unless the libraries are manually placed there (security risk),
or their libraries are patched (which we do).
To patch .NET Core's cryptography libraries, we use `install_name_tool`:
```bash
find ~/.nuget -name System.Security.Cryptography.Native.dylib | xargs sudo install_name_tool -add_rpath /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib
find ~/.nuget -name System.Net.Http.Native.dylib | xargs sudo install_name_tool -change /usr/lib/libcurl.4.dylib /usr/local/opt/curl/lib/libcurl.4.dylib
```
This updates .NET Core's library to look in Homebrew's OpenSSL installation location instead of the system library location.
The PowerShell macOS package come with the necessary libraries patched,
and the build script patches the libraries on-the-fly when building from source.
You *can* run this command manually if you're having trouble with .NET Core's cryptography libraries.

## Kali
### Installation
```sh
# Install prerequisites
apt-get install libunwind8 libicu55
wget http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl/libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u6_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u6_amd64.deb
# Install PowerShell
dpkg -i powershell_6.0.0-beta.6-1ubuntu1.16.04.1_amd64.deb
# Start PowerShell
powershell
```
### Run PowerShell in latest Kali (Kali GNU/Linux Rolling) without installing it
```sh
# Grab the latest App Image
wget https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v6.0.0-beta.6/PowerShell-6.0.0-beta.6-x86_64.AppImage
# Make executable
chmod a+x PowerShell-6.0.0-beta.6-x86_64.AppImage
# Start PowerShell
./PowerShell-6.0.0-beta.6-x86_64.AppImage

```
## Paths
* `$PSHOME` is `/opt/microsoft/powershell/6.0.0-beta.6/`
* User profiles will be read from `~/.config/powershell/profile.ps1`
* Default profiles will be read from `$PSHOME/profile.ps1`
* User modules will be read from `~/.local/share/powershell/Modules`
* Shared modules will be read from `/usr/local/share/powershell/Modules`
* Default modules will be read from `$PSHOME/Modules`
* PSReadline history will be recorded to `~/.local/share/powershell/PSReadLine/ConsoleHost_history.txt`
The profiles respect PowerShell's per-host configuration,
so the default host-specific profiles exists at `Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1` in the same locations.
On Linux and macOS, the [XDG Base Directory Specification][xdg-bds] is respected.
Note that because macOS is a derivation of BSD,
instead of `/opt`, the prefix used is `/usr/local`.
Thus, `$PSHOME` is `/usr/local/microsoft/powershell/6.0.0-beta.6/`,
and the symlink is placed at `/usr/local/bin/powershell`.
