[.NET 8] Warning: "Found version-specific or distribution-specific runtime identifiers"

[ladenedge]

Describe the bug

Including the Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech NuGet package yields a build warning.

C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\8.0.100\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.targets(284,5):
   warning NETSDK1206: Found version-specific or distribution-specific runtime identifier(s): centos7-x64.
   Affected libraries: Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech. In .NET 8.0 and higher, assets for version-specific
   and distribution-specific runtime identifiers will not be found by default.

Note this is similar (but not identical) to #2170. As I mentioned over there, instead of listing many RIDs, I am now only seeing centos7-x64.

To Reproduce

1. Create an empty .NET 8 Console App.
2. Install the Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech NuGet package.
3. Build the solution.

Expected behavior

No warnings!

Version of the Cognitive Services Speech SDK

Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech v1.34.1.

Platform, Operating System, and Programming Language

• OS: Windows
• Hardware: x64
• Programming language: C#
• Visual Studio 2022, .NET 8

Thanks for your time!

Still present in 1.35.0.

These are the only warnings in my solution. :(

Would a PR make sense? (I'm not sure if this project accepts them from randos like me..?)

This appears due to RHEL/CentOS 7 specific binaries under runtimes\centos7-x64 that we have to keep around at least until the CentOS 7 EOL or so. As documented for this breaking change in .NET 8, one workaround is to set UseRidGraph true in the project file.

Okay, thank you for the update!

I'm running into the same thing with a fairly large project with many thousands of lines of code. It's the only warning I have in the project :) Are there any side-effects to the above mentioned work around?

[pankopon]

@exedor The linked .NET 8 documentation does mention that

The long-term goal is to stop updating the RID graph, stop reading it, and eventually remove it.

but the workaround should be good at least for the .NET 8 lifetime, and hopefully by the end of it we will have removed the binaries that trigger the warning.

Internal work item ref. 6718573. A possible target is soon after the CentOS 7 EOL on June 30.

This has been fixed in the Speech SDK 1.40.0 release out now.
