Installing Quartus 18.1 Standard on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS under WSL

Hello,

I am trying to run Quartus 18.1 Standard on an Ubuntu 20.04 using Windows 10 (WSL).
After doing a normal installation I try to run it and I get this:

~/intelFPGA/18.1/quartus/bin$ ./quartus
quartus: error while loading shared libraries: libicudata.so.34: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Invalid argument

I've been looking around how to fix it, but I can't seem to find a solution.

Anyone has an idea?

Regards,

<C>.

      I can't use a different version than Quartus 18.1 because of IP dependencies on a very large project.

      I have tried using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS in WSL, but I get the same error.

      Any other ideas?

        Just for completeness, despite is is useless for me... I tried installing Quartus 19.1 in a WSL running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but I got the same result.

        I start to think it isn't that much about a particular OS or Quartus version, but about WSL doing something funny with the libraries.
