在Windows 10的Ubuntu上的bash上安装swift 4

Question

I try to install Swift 4 on bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10

My version of Ubuntu: me@DESKTOP:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial me@DESKTOP:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial

I did apt-get upgrade and apt-get update

I follow Linux steps here: to install Swift 4

Eventually I end up with the error: me@DESKTOP:~$ swift /home/me/swift4/swift-4.0.2-RELEASE-ubuntu16.04/usr/bin/lldb: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.7.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have python2 installed: me@DESKTOP:~$ python2 --version Python 2.7.12

I wonder how to make it works.

Answer 1

Installing libpython2.7 successfully resolves the error

$ apt-get install libpython2.7

However it still failed to launch the swift repl due to kernel permissions issue .
Using docker image (or Virtual Box like OP) is a better way to go.
