@oniony Gonna try to see later today what happens if I just do the stupid thing and try to build this in msys2/mingw or cygwin with dokan-fuse, if I can...

ms has free to use disk images for VMs, could boot the vbox one in qemu, no?

@oniony Okay, the first problem seems to be that `go get -u github.com/hanwen/go-fuse/fuse` fails with ``` # github.com/hanwen/go-fuse/fuse ..\..\..\mingw64\src\github.com\hanwen\go-fuse\fuse\types.go:400: undefined: Attr ``` Apparently this failure happens on freebsd as well....

There is another project called `go-fuse-c`, which wraps the C bindings, but build that fails like this: ``` $ go get -u github.com/vgough/go-fuse-c/fuse # github.com/vgough/go-fuse-c/fuse In file included from ..\..\..\mingw64\src\github.com\vgough\go-fuse-c\fuse\bridge.go:10:0:...

@Liryna yeah, it looks like you'd have to implement the `go-fuse` project directly for dokan, since it doesn't have any dependencies on the C implementation libfuse. Maybe writing a dokan...

@Liryna does it implement dokan-fuse for go though?

@rprichard there is no current LTS release containing WSL at all. It was temporarily enabled in 1607 but has since been patched out (since including a bleeding-edge beta feature in...

@biswa96 LTS releases every two years. The next Win10 LTS will be 1809. Bash.exe is deprecated, but it will be retained for compatibility. My point was that there is no...

@rprichard If you launch via wsl.exe rather than bash.exe, maybe you can just inherit from the environment variables (wsl.exe I think does the getpwnam/getpwuid)

I wonder if the MSYS2 packaging people build mintty with a patch to change the path to an MSYS2-compatible one, or if maybe there needs to be a patch instead...
