Known Issues

[KalleOlaviNiemitalo]

Developers are reporting that upgrading to .NET SDK 7.0.200 causes a new error:

NETSDK1194: The "--output" option isn't supported when building a solution.

This was intentionally disallowed in PR dotnet/sdk#29065 to fix dotnet/sdk#15607. The issues dotnet/sdk#30624 and dotnet/sdk#30625 have been filed about this breaking change. It has been documented at https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/compatibility/sdk/7.0/solution-level-output-no-longer-valid.

If you want the security fixes from .NET 7.0.3 but need to use --output with a solution, then either downgrade to .NET SDK 7.0.103 or upgrade to .NET SDK 7.0.201.

This also impacted 6.0.* and now we can't pack our solutions anymore. Why would anyone make this breaking change?

[negril]

Microsoft.AspNetCore-.App.Ref has a superfluous - in https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/7.0/7.0.3/7.0.3.md. Might be just a typo in that file or one in some underlying script.
