Hello everyone. I just ran into an issue upgrading to MAUI 8.0.6 and thought I'd warn you to save some hair-pulling. Note that you can create a new MAUI app as 8.0.6 and it'll work - the issue only applies to if you have an existing <=8.03 app and try to upgrade.
As per my previous post, I ran into another issue with 8.0.6 (first time MAUI has gone the upgrade via nuget path - what could go wrong?!), and eventually I realised I already had a repo I could use for repro (I couldn't use the app I was working on), and all I would have to do was update it to 8.06 and... I couldn't (sigh).
If this comment is correct then it relates to Essentials. I tried their work-around but it didn't work for me.
So my status now is I need them to fix this, so I can repro the other issue in 8.0.6, so that they can fix that too and Flyout works again - I'm currently considering downgrading to .NET 7.0 until they get their act together with 8.0.
This is now resolved by updating to VS 17.8.7 or 17.9
