[GSOC 2023] .NET Port

Why not? The app’s .hpkg manifest would declare the runtime as a dependency. Haiku’s package management framework would then pull the hypothetical dotnet .hpkg, and if the latter is installed with the correct directory layout, the .NET host would find that installation just fine.

Again, I have not claimed the contrary. I just said that:

1. We need the runtime packaged and we agree on that. So that every application can declare this as a dependency and avoid the self-contained route.
2. We need to check if we are allowed to install the SDK on the build master and let it build an hypothetical (well not so much ) application and package it.

If the only way to install it is via a package this was a no go as I was minded the SDK could not be installed in a RO path. But I am happy to be proven wrong! Did you actually try?
