Only the arm64 SDKs are added to the “path”. If you need to use x64 SDK you either need to change your environment or explicitly call /usr/local/share/dotnet/x64/dotnet.

Please note that .NET 6 SDK should be mostly backward compatible with 3.1 apps - that is you should be able to build a 3.1 app with a 6.0 SDK. It should work that you use the 6.0 arm64 SDK to build a 3.1 x64 app. Most CLI commands which care have the -a arch option now to let you explicitly target a specific architecture. The only one missing right now is dotnet test - we’re still working on it.

You can confirm the install location by checking the log files under /etc/dotnet/ as shown below
