    I installed inkscape in windows subsystem for ubuntu by:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:inkscape.dev/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install inkscape

    After the installation, I could launch inkscape, even I tried to set up the stack size with "ulimit -s stack size". It always shows the error as below:

    $ inkscape &
Wrong __data_start/_end pair
$ inkscape --version
Wrong __data_start/_end pair
Aborted (core dumped)
$ inkscape --help
Wrong __data_start/_end pair
Aborted (core dumped)

    Does anyone meet the same problem? I tried very hard to solve this problem but I failed every time. Can any expert in inkscape help me? Thanks a lot!

    Someone else has experienced this issue and reported there findings (we're still not sure why yet): https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1420

    I found that running the extracted appimage or running inkscape in gdb mysteriously worked, but I don't have any info beyond that (and no longer have wsl set up to test)

    This problem is solved. I installed the Inkscape 0.92.3 in Ubuntu 18.04, it works. Detailed information refer to https://askubuntu.com/questions/1241669/cannot-launch-inkscape-in-windows-subsystem-for-ubuntu

    @mr_complicated , inkscape is being started in CLI mode and without any instructions, just exits. Again, don't know any fixes, but just in case you weren't sure what was happening. If there's no display to launch the GUI into, that would explain the issue though.
