Hello folks,

just for documentation purpose and to collect potential dupes in future.

Example from bug 45033

.NET helper executable extracted from custom action which makes use of
'PowerShell' class.

That assembly is part of Windows PowerShell:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.management.automation?vie...

which provides 'PowerShell' class implementation for .NET apps.

PowerShell Class
Definition

Namespace:
    System.Management.Automation 

Assembly:
    System.Management.Automation.dll

Represents a PowerShell command or script to execute against a Runspace(Pool)
if provided, otherwise execute using a default Runspace. Provides access to
different result buffers like output, error, debug, verbose, progress, warning,
and information.

Provides a simple interface to execute a powershell command:

PowerShell 2.0 is integrated in all Windows versions since Windows 7 and
Windows Server 2008 R2. If you want to ensure that a PowerShell script also
works properly on a system with PowerShell 2.0, you can switch to a PowerShell
2.0 prompt on every Windows version after Windows 7 with PowerShell.exe
-Version 2. However, this will only work if you installed .NET Framework 2.0 /
3.5.

--- Comment #1 from Anastasius Focht <focht(a)gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

it might be part of Wine-Mono at some point but that wouldn't help in the many
use-cases requiring native MS .NET Frameworks.

https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/2613

There might be a way with .NET Core + PowerShell Core for "native" host OS but
there would be still a lot of interoperability issues.

Install the missing prerequisites on your own.
Resolving as 'invalid' here.
