Can this tool be installed during the build?

already present, but default version is set to 1.21.

Version 1.20 was set to default before 1.21. 
see here: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/commit/e844facbb931ee1a122ef569d76b68edfaf1d8f0

Version 1.21 was set to default end of february. 
see here: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/commit/2730b04222bce454147a124e5d50efaa89ab8c1d

Version 1.22 was set to default on Ubuntu 24.04 only in may.
see here: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/commit/7781af869bec02d4d491cba6d01de412e96d865d

Is there a reason why this has not adapted to Ubuntu 22.04 image toolset?

#10587 has been closed without merge and #10500 does not contain a updated toolset.json How is the actual state about this request?

[habandy]

i saw #10580 has been merged. however the PR only changed the toolset for Ubuntu 24.04 not for 22.04

@RaviAkshintala @ijunaidm @vidyasagarnimmagaddi Sorry for the ping, just want to make you aware of my comment and the fact that Ubuntu 22.04 still has 1.21.* as default.
