I'm not sure if getting a Gui octave for Octave developent on WSL2 is the main purpose of this wiki, If getting an octave with GUI on WSL2, for scientific USE is at another place please direct me there.

Update (5-5-2022) : WSL2 on windows 10, seems to be installing UBUNTU without asking a choice From 04/28/2022 [1], this is for Windows 11 Build 22000 or later.

BUT from [2] : "Windows 10 now lets you run Linux GUI apps (X11 and Wayland) without using a virtual machine after Microsoft added GUI support to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)." So : No need for Virtual box anymore(?!),

Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 21364, is a must for WSLg install? It's a no go for bellow?
