I have already an account on Heroku and a Heroku CLI running on my Windows terminal. As I have also installed a Windows Subsystem for Linux(WSL2), Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, I'm trying to install Heroku CLI also on WSL2, to be accessed for this Shell.
However, it is not possible following closely the Get Started heroku with ruby nor for Windows neither for Ubuntu.
The first barrier is where the OpenSSL key need to be saved. According to the tutorial, it is said to extract the Izma with 7Zip,
...and then extract the tar file to :\openssl.
Doing so, the Heroku CLI can not find the OpenKey through Ubuntu Shell, producing many log advises when I run:
sudo snap install heroku --classic
from the tutorial.
The question is:
1) Is there a way for Heroku CLI, on my Ubuntu Shell, accessing that first key I previously installed on the dir c:/openssl on my Windows? or
2) I need to extract the key to the Ubuntu root?
You can install heroku-cli with this simple install script by heroku:
curl https://cli-assets.heroku.com/install.sh | sh

If you have installed Heroku and it still doesn't work then just restart your terminal. It worked for me.
If you are Windows user, and you are using the Ubuntu terminal. first make sure to delete everything that you installed before about heroku, And then try to run this command " npm install -g heroku " on the ubuntu terminal.
-g means "Global". I had a similar problem, this works for me.
Here you have more information about Heroku information
1) The answer for your first question is "no";
2) Yes, you need to extract the key to your Ubuntu root.
But not exactly a folder named "root" on your Ubuntu on Windows. You have to extract the key to the place your Ubuntu usually saves all keys:
<your-user>/AppData/Local/Packages/CanonicalGroupLimited.UbuntuonWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc/LocalState/rootfs/usr/include/openssl
Use your Windows explorer to find the appropriated path for your case, the reason is: some folders names may change after you installing many others WLS.
After extracting the key, follow the steps from the tutorial as you would do if you were installing using just Ubuntu.
