SignTool fails to update .nupkg because .nupkg is used by another process
See original GitHub issueAfter updating aspnetcore signtool from 1.0.0-beta.18614.1 to 1.0.0-beta.19057.6, we started getting consistent build failures with this error:
CodeSign.targets(51,5): error : Updating 'C:\b\w\e37dd45d8cd1eaf4\artifacts\\packages\Release\Shipping\Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.3.0.0-preview-19068-0407.nupkg' with signed content failed: 'The process cannot access the file 'C:\b\w\e37dd45d8cd1eaf4\artifacts\\packages\Release\Shipping\Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.3.0.0-preview-19068-0407.nupkg' because it is being used by another process.'
I’ve reverted back to signtool 1.0.0-beta.18614.1 to workaround this, but this is currently blocking us from update to the latest version.

It must be something our build which is causing strange race conditions. Still investigating on my end. I’ll re-open if I determine conclusively that we need a change to signtool.
Here are two:
