Duende.IdentityServer.Storage version 7.4.6 on .Net 8 has a .Net 10 dependency.

The NuGet package for Duende.IdentityServer.Storage version 7.4.6 appears to have support for .NetCoreApp version 8.0 but has a dependency on Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.Abstractions >= 10.0.

This is stopping me from upgrading to the latest version in a .Net 8.0 project.

@nextalk-com Are you getting any specific error when adding the Duende.IdentityServer.Storage package? Or do you have a dependency on an older version of Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.Abstractions?

The .NET *.Abstractionspackages are generally safe to add across different versions of the .NET runtime. They are meant to contain code that isn’t dependent on which version of .NET the code is running on. Interfaces, abstract classes, exceptions, utilities, etc. I was able to create an ASP.NET Core 8.0 app and add the latest version of Duende.IdentityServer.Storage. The app compiled and ran successfully. Below is my .csproj file.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
  <PropertyGroup>

    <PackageReference Include="Duende.IdentityServer.Storage" Version="7.4.6" />
