Small tutorial for devs on Ubuntu or WSL, I rebuilt my dev env under WSL and had issues with openzwave

To remind, this is a system dependency for zwave integration.

1. Download Openzwave 1.6

```bash
wget http://old.openzwave.com/downloads/openzwave-1.6.1914.tar.gz

```

1. Extract

```bash
tar zxvf openzwave-1.6.1914.tar.gz

```

1. Move to the extracted folder

```bash
cd openzwave-1.6.1914

```

1. Patch (the latest versions no longer build on Ubuntu, Debian, etc…)

```bash
wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/VonOx/9229c8815edc2ece33fdff7bcc15bc25/raw/225b66516829853d3c368f51234f4c09bb5b1361/ozw1914.patch && patch -p1 < ozw1914.patch

```

1. Build and install

```bash
make && sudo make install

```

1. Modify the environment

```bash
sudo sed -i '$a LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib64' /etc/environment
sudo ldconfig

```

After that, the installation of npm packages will work (and eslint as well)

I moved this topic to «&nbsp;tutorials&nbsp;», wouldn’t this tutorial deserve to be in the WSL site documentation?

I also hope we’ll soon get rid of this completely obsolete dependency! ^^

I wondered about that too, but the patch is supposed to be temporary 😕  
But nothing is moving on the repo (It’s an issue from 2021 that put me on the track)
