FileLoadException when running C# script with .NET Core 3.1

2

I wrote the following C# script (HelloWorld.csx file):

#! "netcoreapp3.1"
#r "nuget: System.Text.Encoding.CodePages, 5.0.0"

public class Script
{
    public static void Run()
    {
        try
        {
            System.Text.Encoding.RegisterProvider(System.Text.CodePagesEncodingProvider.Instance);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
        }
    }
}

Script.Run();

I'm using dotnet-script (version 1.0.1) and .NET Runtime (version 3.1.14)

When executing this script, I get the following error. Any idea why?

dotnet-script HelloWorld.csx

I created an issue on the dotnet-script repo and I got an answer from the dev. Refer to the issue for all the details.

The answer I got is that dotnet-script version 1.0.1 preloads version 4.7.1 of System.Text.Encoding.CodePages which means a newer major cannot be resolved.
