Slow installation time

Overview

This morning I started a fresh installation of GDK after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04, a brand new Ubuntu installation, totally clean.

Environment:

• Ubuntu 22.04 inside Windows WSL2

I:

• installed the prerequisites following these 3 points
• used the one-line installation command leaving all the defaults apart from the project URL (I used the community fork) from here

The installation worked without any issues the first time and I got GDK up and running, but it took nearly 4 hours to complete.

It took a while to compile all the dependencies, and OpenSSL 1 since I am in Ubuntu 22.04, but then it took nearly 2 and a half hours to complete the database setup being stuck at this step:

Same thing that happened in the past (always using WSL2) and I reported in #1669 (closed)

Impacted categories

The following categories relate to this issue:

• gdk-reliability - e.g. When a GDK action fails to complete.
• gdk-usability - e.g. Improvements or suggestions around how the GDK functions.
• gdk-performance - e.g. When a GDK action is slow or times out.
