By the way, I had to disable SourceLink to build this:

Also, I see that sdk 8.0.200 is out. It was my understanding that there will be a tag under dotnet/dotnet that will be made available. Is this still the case?

What was the actual error message? There should be something that includes the string error:

[mthalman]

Could you provide a binlog for the build with that error?

Source build in still only supported in the 100 feature band of the SDK. Support for multiple feature bands is planned in the .NET 9 timeframe.

What is the difference between the different bands? 8.0.10X vs 8.0.20X?

nm, found this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/versions/

According to this post it was said the VMR would have 8.0.2xx branches as well, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Is this intended?

[mthalman]

That post was just a request for feedback and doesn't represent the current product plan. You can find the current roadmap at https://github.com/orgs/dotnet/projects/310/views/2. Specifically, support for multiple SDK bands is planned for later this year. This would only apply to .NET 9 and higher.

Unfortunate, guess we'll have to keep using binary patching for yet another year.
