SkiaSharp SKSvg.Load throws MissingMethodException

I use SkiaSharp libraries on my Xamarin.Core/Xamarin.iOS project. I try to load an SVG file from the Core library like the following;

 var svg = new SKSvg();

 Assembly assembly = type.GetTypeInfo().Assembly;

 using (Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream($"{assembly.GetName().Name}.Images.watermark_light.svg"))
 {
     svg.Load(stream);
 }

The code throws on the "Load" step saying "System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: SkiaSharp.SKTextBlob SkiaSharp.SKTextBlob.CreatePositioned(string,SkiaSharp.SKFont,System.ReadOnlySpan`1<SkiaSharp.SKPoint>)"

My configuration:

  • Device: Debug|Simulator
  • Linker Behaviour: Don't link
  • Xamarin.iOS 15.4.0.0
  • xcode13.2: 8fc41ae82
  • Rider IDE: RD-221.5591.20
  • OS: MacOS Monterey 12.4 (21F79)

Libraries

  • SkiaSharp v2.88.1-preview.79
  • SkiaSharp.Views v2.88.1-preview.79
  • Svg.Skia v0.5.14
  • SkiaSharp.Svg v1.60.0
  • CoreLibrary/Images/watermark_light.svg(svg path)

I tried to add SKTextBlob reference to LinkerPleaseInclude.cs as well. But, it should not be the case when the linker behaviour is set to "Don't link". Also a added --linkskip argument for the relevant namespace. None of them worked. Any ideas about the issue?

Thanks!
