Arch Linux User Repository

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFO (a reminder for myself as well):

For dotnet to work you need to EXPLICITLY install:

• ONE dotnet-host - highest version possible
• ANY NUMBER of dotnet-runtimes (and its sdks after if you want to build as well - Right now version 'bin', '3.1', '3.0', '2.2' and '2.1' are tested to work together)

If you keep the install order in mind and you don't rely on pacman to resolve your dependencies you will be fine.

Longer explanation:

Every dotnet-sdk is dependent on a specific version of dotnet-runtime, this is built into dotnet.

Technically you only need the latest dotnet-sdk because it can build to any earlier versions.

If you want to install the new version 6.0.10.sdk402 :

libgssapi_krb5.so is a required dependency, but is not directly marked as one. It is provided by krb5.

Error: Process terminated. Couldn't find a valid ICU package installed on the system. Set the configuration flag System.Globalization.Invariant to true if you want to run with no globalization support.

Found a workaround without installing any new packages, setting environment variable: CLR_ICU_VERSION_OVERRIDE=71.1

Note that you will need to change this variable every time ICU updates until this issue gets fixed

Edit:

This issue only appears if you have .NET Core 3.1 runtime installed alongside 6.0 and your project references Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Functions

@jongeduard

icu 71.1-1 system package downgrade wasn't an option for me, as you mentioned, a lot of other packages depend on it and I didn't want to downgrade all of them.

Thankfully installing icu70 70.1-1 from AUR along side icu 71.1-1 fixed the build and run errors.

I also use storageexplorer AUR for work, it requires 3.1 runtime and it was also crashing on startup with the new icu 71.1-1.

My first attempt to fix the issue was adding DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_INVARIANT=true environment variable, that allowed me to build the code, but then it crashed on runtime.

Regarding your question what part of the code, there were many but one notable one was Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Script.ExtensionsMetadataGenerator

@crimson Thanks, your comment helps me to understand what I am seeing in the VS Code's (using the OmniSharp extension) OUTPUT tab when selecting "Log (Window)".

But I have been seeing an error there for a longer period (I am not fully shure that it was the same, though I know it was a .NET exception stack trace all the time, so I guess it's likely still the same).

Nevertheless I was able to work and my project did simply run, but that's probably because I have not been using that Globalization functionality anywere in my own code yet.

I still have icu-69.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst and icu-70.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst in my /var/cache/pacman/pkg folder, but when I try to downgrade to these I am getting conflicts with other dependend packages, so things will become a mess quickly and will probably require me to downgrade or uninstall a whole bunch of things, making everything a mess quickly (I don't expect that the AUR version of those packages will fix that).

So I hope things are getting fixed by others such that this newest ICU version is going to work again.

For my learning experience: what specific code in your projects is using this exact thing?

After updating icu system package to 71.1-1 (International Components for Unicode library) I couldn't build or run some projects anymore.

Error: Process terminated. Couldn't find a valid ICU package installed on the system. Set the configuration flag System.Globalization.Invariant to true if you want to run with no globalization support.

I solved by using CLR_ICU_VERSION_OVERRIDE=71.1

Old solution: installing icu70 70.1-1 from AUR

@Gr3q In my last comment I more or less forgot to metion that I understand this now.

I already found out where you are getting this SDK package from by looking at everything.

I also found Microsofts instruction how I can even simply run this generic Linux package from my home folder by setting two variables - I like the idea of really having the thing installed though, so I'll definitely keep using your PKGBUILD.

I also agree with you that it should be an issue on Github.

Many thanks!

@jongeduard the problem is that I'm not building this binaries, Microsoft is.

If they don't provide them out of the box, the only option is that I download the source and build the manpages myself (like Fedora, but they build everything), which I cannot do because I'm providing binary releases.

This issue might be better directed to the community package maintainers or to raise an issue in one of the relevant packages on dotnet's github, so they provide them out of the box in linux binary releases.

@Gr3q Thanks for your reply. I see.

It's a bit weird with those man pages, I just found out that it's in fedora their dotnet-host package (https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/dotnet6.0/dotnet-host/fedora-36.html#files).

Maybe this just another extra magic that they did specifically on fedora (as usual) in addition to the defaults. Would not surprise me to be honest.

Never mind. We can look at www.mankier.com anyway and enough docs are on docs.microsoft.com.

@jongeduard probably they have issues building it (as usual), because Arch is not officially supported platform to build on.

manpage info is not included in the prebuilt library and that's why they are missing from this package.
