Description:

OpenRA seems to only require the dotnet-sdk-6.0 package for package build, but not for gameplay.
Should dotnet-sdk-6.0 be a make dependency only, and have dotnet-runtime-6.0 as a normal dependency instead?
This could reduce the install size by a lot.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any

Steps to reproduce:
Here is my tests posted on Arch forum (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=289808):

I tried to install only the runtime package by

$ sudo pacman -S dotnet-runtime-6.0
$ sudo pacman -S --assume-installed dotnet-sdk-6.0 openra

Started the game. And then installed sdk package by

$ sudo pacman -S dotnet-sdk-6.0

And started the game again.

The result is, the game runs and behaves the same in both cases.
So, the gameplay doesn't depend on the sdk package, it's only a make-dependency.
This task depends upon

Yes, I think it works well.
