I've used this Guide.

If i try to do make build-deps, i am getting the following error: Link

  • The error says Curl failed - do you have the curl command available on WSL? Mar 21, 2019 at 13:17
  • Hi, yeah: curl is already the newest version (7.58.0-2ubuntu3.2). Mar 21, 2019 at 14:13
  • eval $(opam env) opam update && opam upgrade Didn't help either. Mar 21, 2019 at 15:08

I seem to recall similar curl errors when building on older versions of ubuntu and debian. The solution there was to install a newer version of git. Look for references to "git" in https://github.com/tezoscommunity/FAQ/blob/master/Compile_Mainnet.md

I tried getting Tezos building and running on different WSL's but there was always different issues coming up - building Tezos was fine but running Tezos was tricky.

You can install VirtualBox (which is free) and then install a official Linux distribution.

It will be emulated so it is slower but it works perfectly.

You can copy & paste txt between host (Windows 10) and guest machine (Linux) and it even supports file drag & drop. Both of these features are life savers for development.
