I do not think failures in Libraries Build windows allConfigurations x64 Debug caused by the changes. Perhaps needs rebasing once more?

[VSadov]

These are the same changes as in #45765
LGTM

Linux_musl arm failure is #48091.

Sorry for the post-merge discussion but did we also consider instead of having a distinct directory just for native files, putting all host related files together? Mostly talking about the corehost.proj msbuild wrapper file and the nuget package files (the pkgprojs).

[am11]

I have subscribed to your #48338 thread for that. 😄
basically, once we get the git rev-parse ExecCommand and friends decoupled from corehost and rest of the projects under src/installer, it would make it possible to move the corehost.proj file under src/native, without duplicating the common installer targets. I haven't looked at pkgprojs, but once/if corehost.proj is moved, it's easy to decouple pkgprojs as well (unless there is some correlation with sfxprojs which might make it more.. exciting to figure out).

Ok cool, so we aren't concerned about having msbuild files under eng/native? That works for me :)

I have subscribed to your #48338 thread for that. 😄

Haha cool. I just marked it as up for grabs as it shouldn't be too hard to accomplish. There are different strategical investments going forward to minimize the installer subset and move it into other more suitable places in the repo. I.e. the refpack could just be built by libraries.
