MAUI iOS - Deploy on older simulator

I recently had to update Xcode from 15.2 to 15.4 in order to use the latest maui-ios workload.

I actually have both installed (thanks Xcodes!).

Xcode 15.2 carried iOS 17.2 as simulator runtime. Now if I open Xcode 15.4 I still see the simulator running iOS 17.2, but building a simple Maui application fails because it searches for iOS 17.5 (the one carried by Xcode 15.4).

I'm sure installing iOS 17.5 would solve the problem, but I would like not to be forced to do that. I mean, if I need to test an app on an older version, do I have to install also the right Xcode version? Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

My machine is running macOS Sonoma 14.7.

This is extracted from the error file:

<key>com.apple.actool.errors</key>
<array>
        <dict>
                <key>description</key>
                <string>The operation couldn’t be completed. Failed to locate any simulator runtime matching options: {

);

}</string>

        </dict>
</array>

It seems you need to install the latest version and then you can test on older ones.
