Also thus remove Debian 10 instructions, as Debian 10 uses an older kernel.
I don't think this is relevant anymore, especially after https://github.com/darlinghq/darling/pull/1207.
Current issues on WSL1 are Microsoft-specific, so theoretically Darling should run normally on a real Linux 4.4.0 kernel.
Shall I test it and find out? Then, I can amend this pull request with the actual minimum kernel version.
As of https://github.com/darlinghq/darling/commit/0cada3718d52cce1f3e2d19bbf36c1248fee352c Darling is good enough to display a bash shell and information from neofetch on WSL1 (a subset of kernel version 4.4.0).
While it has not been tested on a real 4.4.0 kernel, it might be worth a try.
Might as well, I enjoy doing this kind of thing anyway. I'll update the pull request when I have some time - rather busy at the moment.
Okay, can confirm that Debian 10 doesn't work, because the kernel headers are too old. In essence, I think this means that Darling (without this component perhaps) might run on a real 4.4.0 kernel, but might not build properly against the kernel headers for that 4.4.0 kernel.
While it might be possible to get Darling to compile if I edit the Cmake file, I think this is probably not worth doing, and probably wouldn't be a supported configuration anyway. I would attach a screenshot of the problem (see #off-topic in Discord), but don't seem to be able to.
At any rate, I can confirm that Debian 10 definitely doesn't work, so we should remove it. I can always add a note by the kernel version saying "(except for WSL1)" if that's what people want.
