Re:Wine on Windows 10 by makomk on Wednesday August 07, 2019 @08:00AM (#20633877)
Nope. WSL is basically a reimplementation of the Linux kernel's syscall layer (or at least the original version of it was - WSL 2 is an actual Linux kernel running in a VM). If you do a Linux syscall from within a Wine app it calls into the actual underlying Linux kernel and Wine itself makes heavy use of this within its libraries. WSL on Wine isn't possible and doesn't really make sense. I guess it might be possible to add support for WSL 2 since that's just a VM, but I'm not sure why you'd ever want to since it is just a VM.
