CodesignEntitlements doesn't seem to work in project

[thedee]

Description

When trying to set the entitlements in the project the build pipeline doesn't seem to pick it up. What happens is I get the error:
"This app cannot be installed because its integrity could not be verfied"

In my Maui project I have this:

<PropertyGroup Condition="$(TargetFramework.Contains('-ios')) and '$(Configuration)' == 'Release'">
	<CodesignEntitlements>Platforms/iOS/Entitlements.prod.plist</CodesignEntitlements>
	<CodesignKey>iPhone Distribution: XXX (XXXXXXXX)</CodesignKey>
	<CodesignProvision>AdHoc Distribution</CodesignProvision>
	<UseInterpreter>true</UseInterpreter>
	<MtouchLink>SdkOnly</MtouchLink>
</PropertyGroup>

and in my pipeline I have this:

- task: CmdLine@2
    displayName: 'Build project'
    inputs:
      script: 'dotnet publish -f net8.0-ios -c Release'

The ipa gets created but I get the error I listed above.

If I change my pipleline to this it works and runs property on the device:

- task: CmdLine@2
    displayName: 'Build project'
    inputs:
      script: 'dotnet publish -f net8.0-ios -c Release -p:CodesignEntitlements=Platforms/iOS/Entitlements.prod.plist'

Why doesn't the build pickup the project properties at build time if they are not being passed as a param on the publish?

@thedee Can you try doing this in a standalone iOS app? You can make one with dotnet new ios.

I have a feeling you'll hit the same issue outside of the MAUI UI tooling.

I am having issues doing it this way due to the way we are setup.
