Hello
I have a Xamarin Forms Shared Project which can build and deploy without errors. However, the following build warning have appeared:
There was a conflict between "mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" and "mscorlib, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e".
1> No way to resolve conflict between "mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" and "mscorlib, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e". Choosing "mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" arbitrarily.
The build warning seems to have appeared after updating Visual Studio and I cannot get rid of it.
I have tried cleaning the project, removing bin folder, .vs folder and building a new project with the same dependencies but that does not replicate the warning.
I have found other posts with a similar issue to this but I do not know if those problems are related:
