I've tried to install Service Fabric on my Development Environment which is Ubuntu 18.04 and the following scrip failed
```bash
sudo curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure/service-fabric-scripts-and-templates/master/scripts/SetupServiceFabric/SetupServiceFabric.sh | sudo bash
```
I've removed the check of the OS Version (Xenial) but the dependencies still won't install...

I know the documentation strictly specify Xenial, but I was wondering if the 18.04 will be supported soon or if there's a workaround in the meantime.

Thanks
When Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic beaver) will be supported?

@username_3 will be able to answer this question. 

@chenxumsft, have done any sort of testing on 18.04 ?

@AnthonyM did we get through the issues with running a cluster inside of the docker container? Your end to end test does that right? If so, even if the host is 18.04, you can build and run inside the container which is still on Xenial....

18.04 will only be launched end of this month, and we'll investigate and support it in the coming months.

@username_3 stable version are already available, with RDP protocol compliance which is ideal to use alongside with Windows 10 and Hyper-V. It's a bit sad that it's a matter of months to support it, specially considering that it's the only Linux distribution compatible (as far as I know by reading the documentation).

If it's going to take few months that I don't really have right now to make a decision, can you tell me the ideal workaround to move forward?

I can develop on Windows, test locally, then deploy a on-premise Linux Cluster for production on the 16.04 version?

Please advise, many thanks!

I understand username_0. We generally release every 2-3 months, and since we just released 6.2, hence my statement in the coming months. We'll have a better idea once we investigate what's needed.  Until then, as many of our customers do, you can develop on Windows and publish on Linux. Standalone Linux clusters (preview) are also coming soon.

So today I can install the on premise Service Fabric on Windows and user Linux Nodes, but Standalone Linux clusters are not released yet, that's right?

I have another question and then I'll stop bugging you: as of today, is it possible to develop Service Fabric service on Linux with VS Code and test them locally? The answer is "yes with Ubuntu 16.04", right?

Thanks for all the information!

It is not supported yet, but we’re investigating it as we plan out the next few months.  We’ll provide an update on this in a couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience.

Any updates on this? Is there any workaround for working in latest ubuntu?

Currently the issue is "dot net runtime" has working package for ubuntu bionic, and it has moved to libcurl4, and servicefabric (Xenial) is in libcurl3, not able to proceed.

This is being worked on - updating the dependencies as well as adequate testing. We're focusing on the next release announced at Ignite which is going out end of this month (6.4) release, and post then the focus will shift to this.  I understand the ask for moving to the latest, but is there any blocking issue on 16.04?

My development machine is Pop!OS and it is the Bionic Beaver. For now, I can only use the container.

@username_3 can you please provide us with a proper date at which it would be completed ? Some is project are due because of these

I apologize for the inconvenience, but I don't have an exact date to share. We're targeting H1 CY19 to ship this, but I realize that's a wide time frame. I can loop back with a more narrower time frame in a month or so.

This question was asked in the most recent Service Fabric Community Q&A and it seems that Ubuntu 18.04 support is not on the short term development roadmap. They made no commitment on the call as to when this might be available.

Odd. It was under development and should be available soon. https://github.com/microsoft/service-fabric/tree/18.04

Ubuntu 18.04 support is available under "18.04" branch.

Build command
./runbuild.sh -ubuntu18

Additionally you can pass in the -pe option to the script to enable precompiled header 
./runbuild.sh -ubuntu18 -pe

We have release the support with 7.1. but as the Virtus, it require more time to get this rollout to azure portal. We can cooperate with people on this, and hopefully can get some an estimation soon

@username_15 I'm going to close this issue since 1804 has been supported for some time. Support for 20.04 is a separate issue and we will need to provide a timeline in the public roadmap.
