Description

### Android framework version

net9.0-android

### Affected platform version

Android 36

### Description

I noticed that none of the transitive packages are being updated when I do a Nuget update. Is this normal/expected? What I seem to have ended up with is the directly referenced packages being updated, but the transitive ones staying on older versions.

I have had ongoing issues with these packages since I first started using them - there has not been a single day where we haven't had compile warnings related to them, and often we can't update them because as soon as we do something breaks. I can see issues raised against some of these and fixes being reported but I am not seeing the fixes.

What do I need to do to get out of this world of pain?

BTW I just tried manually adding all the transitive packages into my project, but that just introduced more build errors - so that doesn't seem like an option.

### Steps to Reproduce

As described

### Did you find any workaround?

No
