Description
Problem
When installing runtimes xcodes will duplicate runtimes which are already installed
Both runtimes installed via xcodes
Steps to reproduce
- Install a runtime via xcodes
- install the same runtime again
Error: duplicate runtimes are shown in xcodes
It is unsure which runtime xcode is using.
Notes
There seems no check if a runtime is already installed with the xcdoes runtimes install command
Duplicate downloads does not seem to happen
Environment
xcodes versions 2.0.2
