Bug
After opening a .cs file from a .net framework 4.8 project, it fails to load basic dependencies throwing unusable error warnings on the screen.
After looking at the output of :messages:

it looks like it couldn't find the path of the mono libraries.
Doing export FrameworkPathOverride=MONO_API_PATH was able to make the language server find those dependencies, but it would then brake building from msbuild, and would incorrectly load/not find other libraries.
As I am not sure if this is a problem related to csharp-ls or how it is being packaged/configured for NixOs, I also made this issue https://github.com/nix-community/nixvim/issues/679 on the nixvim configuration flake.
I have uploaded a newer version of csharp-ls that has msbuild.locator lib updated–not really sure if related but you may want to check if it helps.
I was not getting this with 0.10.0 but now I am with 0.11.0 and building from source. My project is using dotnet 6.0.
