Description

When testing out MSBuildCache on my solution, I am getting a build error related to Microsoft.CodeAnalysis 3.8.00, from one of our projects that itself references a difference Microsoft.CodeAnalysis version:

https://github.com/microsoft/MSBuildCache/blob/main/Directory.Packages.props#L29 references <PackageVersion Include="Microsoft.CodeAnalysis" Version="3.8.0" /> so it appears they are clashing?

NB I'm using dotnet build here - is it unsupported and I need a VS Install?

dotnet build -c Release

Research direction

Reproduce the failure with dotnet build -c Release, then inspect Directory.Packages.props, Directory.Build.props, and Foo.CodeAnalysis.csproj alongside the Microsoft.MSBuildCache.SharedCompilation targets named in the error. Trace the Microsoft.CodeAnalysis version mismatch and verify that the affected project builds successfully without the ResolveFileAccesses assembly-load failure.
