The application '--version' does not exist #16438

Today dotnet --version stopped working for me.

I use a Github Actions workflow to test my script to install dotnet-sdk-7.0 on Ubuntu 22.

My script copies the documented steps to Register the Microsoft package repository.

At the end I test the installation using dotnet --version.

Yesterday's CI run worked like this.

+ dotnet --version
7.0.302

Today's fails with the error in the title.

+ dotnet --version
The command could not be loaded, possibly because:
  * You intended to execute a .NET application:
      The application '--version' does not exist.
  * You intended to execute a .NET SDK command:
      No .NET SDKs were found.

Download a .NET SDK:
https://aka.ms/dotnet/download

Now how do I check the version?
