Disabling "Trim unused code" enables the publish operation to succeed (probably not very surprising given the error is with the trimmer!)

[marek-safar]

@vitek-karas can we guess which intrinsic is missing or do we need a repro?

[vitek-karas]

This looks identical to #3072
Which has a pending 7.0 fix in #3109

Does the app use a library which is build for netstandard1.6 (or basically anything older than netstandard2.0?
If it's the same problem, then a workaround is to rebuild such library to netstandard2.0 - and it should work.

[NeilMacMullen]

Does the app use a library which is build for netstandard1.6 (or basically anything older than netstandard2.0?

No. All libraries are targetting "netstandard2.0" or "net6.0"

[vitek-karas]

Hmm - that would point this to NOT be the same issue as I mention above (or it's unlikely).

Can you try the process described here: #3160
That will let you run the latest trimmer - to see if we have this fixed in main.

Would it be possible to get a repro project?

[NeilMacMullen]

Would it be possible to get a repro project?
Unfortunately it's a fairly complicated proprietary project so unlikely I can cut it down to a repro case. I'll try out the suggested process and let you know results but may take a few days...

For the record, I had the same issue in my very large avalonia android app. It uses many nuget packages so I haven't yet combed through all of them and their dependencies to see which version of .net standard they use.

Doing the process in #3106 seemed to fix my issue.
