.NET MAUI Install Probs

I am just trying to create a .NET MAUI app, on macOS, using VS Code.

I've installed various build-tools -- I thought -- in Android Studio -- under Android SDK Build-Tools 35 it lists 34.0.0 as checked (not sure why that's nested under 35, but that's the least of my problems), but VS Code insists that it is not. I suspect this has something to do with paths.

Any ideas? ChatGPT was not helpful (for once).

Android components:
    - Java SDK: installed version '17.0.12'

    Android SDK recommended required components:
    - platforms/android-34: installed version '3'
    x build-tools/34.0.0: not installed.
    x platform-tools: installed version '34.0.3' - update required to version '34.0.5'.
    x cmdline-tools/11.0: installed version '7.0' - update required to version '11.0'.

    Android SDK recommended optional components:
    - emulator: installed version '32.1.14'
    - system-images/android-34/google_apis/arm64-v8a: installed version '6'
    x system-images/android-35/google_apis_playstore_ps16k/arm64-v8a: not installed. Dependent Components avd: 'Pixel 8 Pro API 35'.
    - system-images/android-VanillaIceCream/google_apis_playstore/arm64-v8a: installed version '5'

ACTION REQUIRED:
    - The required Android SDK components need to be installed. You can install them from the command palette by choosing '.NET MAUI: Configure Android', selecting 'How to configure Android', and following the instructions. Take into account that the Maui Android SDK recommends specific component versions and if you decide to not use them the build/debug may not work well.

Xcode:
    - Path: /Applications/Xcode.app
    - Discovered from: xcode-select -p
    - Installed: true
