I upgraded to the latest Xamarin for Visual Studio 2015 (Community Edition), recompiled my projects, checked in a few small code changes and my VSTS build server fails with this error message:
[error]CSC(0,0): Error CS1703: Multiple assemblies with equivalent identity have been imported: 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\MonoAndroid\v1.0\mscorlib.dll' and 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\mscorlib.dll'. Remove one of the duplicate references.
Internet searches return nearly no details about this issue in general and no valuable information at all in the context of VSTS and Xamarin.
The only code change that I consider to be relevant to the issue was done by Visual Studio in the project file:
I only develop for Android, am on Xamarin 4.2 and use the JDK 8 u101.
Any idea how to solve this issue?
