TShock unsupported on Ubuntu 24.04 #3100
Description
- TShock version: Release 5.2.4
- TShock build number (if known):
Context
When trying to launch TShock on an Ubuntu 24.04 server, the process fails, due to its dependency on .NET 6.0, an EOL version of the .NET framework.
Any stack traces or error messages (if known)?
Using Systemd:
Started tshock.service - Terraria Server.
You must install or update .NET to run this application.

tshock.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=150/n/a
tshock.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Workaround
Using the ./TShock.Installer executable is possible to use a non-system provided framework. However, this leaves no place for correct automation and integration using the ./TShock.Launcher executable.
Given PR #3050 was merged, consider releasing an intermediary version or pre-release ASAP, to allow for users affected by this to effectively mitigate dependencies issues.
