When I try to compile multiple RID installers using a dummy csproj none of them build.

[AraHaan]

So, I tried to make a bundleproj file to create install bundles which itself does not specify any RIDs so that way the project file that uses the MSBuild element in it's file can pass them in, instead none of them get passed in and the solution file runs a top level build of it only which produces nuget packages with the RID as any (it uses any when no RID is specified in them to create only packages that are not R2R + crossgen2 optimized).

This is what the project file looks like (it uses dotnet/arcade to generate installers):

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.Build.NoTargets/3.2.9">

  <Target Name="BuildInstallerProjects" BeforeTargets="Build">
    <Message Importance="high" Text="Building Installers for Windows." Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('Windows'))" />

    <Message Importance="high" Text="Building Installers for MacOS." Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('OSX'))" />

      Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('Windows'))" />
    <MSBuild

      Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('Linux'))" />

      Targets="GenerateInstallers"
      SkipNonexistentTargets="true"
      Properties="RuntimeIdentifier=linux-arm"
      Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('Linux'))" />
    <MSBuild
      Projects="../bundle/Elskom.Sdk.App.Bundle.bundleproj"
      Targets="GenerateInstallers"
      SkipNonexistentTargets="true"
      Properties="RuntimeIdentifier=linux-arm64"

      Properties="RuntimeIdentifier=osx-x64"
      Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('OSX'))" />
    <MSBuild
      Projects="../bundle/Elskom.Sdk.App.Bundle.bundleproj"
      Targets="GenerateInstallers"

      Properties="RuntimeIdentifier=osx-arm64"
      Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('OSX'))" />
  </Target>

</Project>

Unless what I have to do is generate the any rid nuget packages in this before the other RIDs get built and remove the bundleproj file from the solution.

I have came up with this, however it happens to have an issue after manual restore where it says it does not have the rids in the restore assets file.

I got it working with a slight change to this.
