Hm... I'm not sure about this one. Statically linking also statically links any potential vulnerabilities, and I'm not sure if there are not any implicit kernel dependencies after all. If interoperability with WSL is the goal, I think building on a sufficiently old LTS version of Ubuntu would be a good solution. |

Yeah I thought you might prefer not merging this one haha, that's why I split the pull request to their components. I'll keep this open but feel free to close it! |

I've changed the runner to Ubuntu 22.04 in the master branch now. The result is at least compatible with a local WSL environment of that same version. |

While testing the linux builds generated through the current actions on WSL2, I ran into the following errors:
This is due to linking dynamically against the standard library, and causes portability issues that can be difficult to resolve on the user's side (this issue does not exist when built locally). Instead, this pr changes the linux build on actions to be statically linked for maximum portability.
