dotnet restore no longer supports multiple runtimes

See original GitHub issue

Repo

dotnet new console
dotnet restore -r win-x64 -r linux-x64

Result

error NETSDK1083: The specified RuntimeIdentifier 'win-x64;linux-x64' is not recognized.

Speculation It seems the multiple runtimes are being passed in as RuntimeIdentifier instead of RuntimeIdentifiers?

This used to work on 2.2

As a workaround I can put <RuntimeIdentifiers>.... in the csproj and exclude the -r switches, but I dont really want to do this, since it means updating a lot of csprojs.

PS: I tried to find the cause for this, but got lost finding the source responsible for the dotnet restore command 😦

Also surprised to see this as still an issue, and on the docs in 2022 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-restore

Using Sdk 5.0.303.

Stumbled upon this documentation for dotnet restore while trying to restore multiple RIDs at once, which lead me here. Still up as of SDK 6.

I assume that the suggested way to restore multiple RIDs without adding them to the csproj explicitly is to restore each RID before building for that RID? (e.g. restore ... ; build ... ; restore ... ; build ...)

If that is so, it seems that calling restore before each build steps sometimes loose RIDs in the project.assets.json and building will not work because restore assumes that the project is up-to-date despite missing the asked RID in the latest restore call. Though this is likely not related to this issue directly (if it is intended to restore RIDs individually before building, I’ll try to figure out a repro and open another issue).
