Repro steps

Set apps[0].outDir as "../dist" on .angular-cli.json
run ng b

Observed behavior

Only a error message: An asset cannot be written to a location outside the project.

Desired behavior

Build the project without problem.

Mention any other details that might be useful (optional)

We have tried to add allowOutsideDir to ours assets configuration on cli config, but doesn’t work. Is this the expected behaviour? I don’t found related information about it in de64b86 or #8122 😦

Same problem here. I can’t believe a major functionality of the CLI, “ng b”, doesn’t work after an update… Downgrade to 1.5.3…

Patching the 1.5.4 with fix in #8630 solve the problem, so just wait for the next release.
