install-dotnet.sh keeps failing to install .NET 10.0.x on macos-13 image #645
Description
Description:
Using actions/setup-dotnet@v4 fails to install .NET 10.0.x on the macos-13 image with the following error:
/Users/runner/work/_actions/actions/setup-dotnet/v4/externals/install-dotnet.sh --skip-non-versioned-files --channel 10.0
/Users/runner/work/_actions/actions/setup-dotnet/v4/externals/install-dotnet.sh: line 1440: link_types[$link_index]: unbound variable
Error: Failed to install dotnet, exit code: 1. /Users/runner/work/_actions/actions/setup-dotnet/v4/externals/install-dotnet.sh: line 1440: link_types[$link_index]: unbound variable
It used to happen only sporadically, but now it seems to always fail. Maybe before I got a different hosted runner at times.

Hi @eXpl0it3r 👋,
The issue is caused by a problem within
dotnet/install-scripts. The discussion in dotnet/install-scripts#610 is relevant to this issue, and the fix has been implemented in PR dotnet/install-scripts#617.Currently, we are working on updating the install scripts to incorporate this fix.
Thank you for your cooperation while we work on resolving this. We'll update this thread as soon as the fix is in place. If you have any further feedback or encounter related issues, please let us know!

I figure it might be somewhere in install-scripts, but thought you will best know where to look. Thanks for keeping me updated!

I have the same issue installing .NET Core 3.1 on
macos-13image, which used to work fine. Since this was reported for .NET 10, I'd thought I'd mention it as I can't tell if the fix will also address the 3.1 channel.Or are the EOL versions completely removed going forward?
