It looks like PowerShell isn't currently packaged for Fedora, so I had a bit of a go trying to build it, which was an interesting distraction into learning something about how dotnet projects build.

There is certainly a bit of bootstrapping fun as the documented way to build PowerShell starts with running a PowerShell script. It turns out this isn't strictly needed as you can invoke dotnet directly to start building.

I didn't get past the various points of being able to vendor the dependencies and match up dotnet SDK versions enough to get a bootstrap build going, but I did timebox myself on this.

If you have any tips of getting to the point of being able to have all artifacts needed to build to be local, and building with a dotnet shipped in Amazon Linux... I'm all ears.
