Dotnet 10 - ZXing.Net.Maui 0.6.0 - Xamarin.AndroidX.Tracing dependency conflict breaks Android build

After upgrading to ZXing.Net.Maui version 0.6.0, my .NET MAUI Android application fails to build with a dependency conflict error.

Error Message

error NU1107: Version conflict detected for Xamarin.AndroidX.Tracing.Tracing.Android.

ZXing.Net.Maui 0.6.0 requires version 1.2.0

Xamarin.AndroidX.Tracing.Tracing.Ktx requires version 1.3.0 or higher

Install/reference Xamarin.AndroidX.Tracing.Tracing.Android 1.3.0 directly to project to resolve this issue.

Environment

• ZXing.Net.Maui: 0.6.0
• .NET: 10.0
• Target Framework: net10.0-android
• Platform: Android

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new .NET MAUI project
2. Install ZXing.Net.Maui.Controls version 0.6.0 via NuGet
3. Initialize in MauiProgram.cs:

builder.UseBarcodeReader();

4. Build for Android
5. Build fails with dependency conflict

Temporary Workaround

I worked around this issue by cloning the GitHub repository and using a local project reference instead of the NuGet package, but only for the Debug build. However, the problem still persists in the Release build.

git clone https://github.com/Redth/ZXing.Net.Maui.git

Question

What is the proper way to resolve this dependency conflict without using a local project reference?

This is a known issue on .NET10 and has been fixed with the 0.7.0 release.
