The "ResolvePackageAssets" task failed unexpectedly due to max path limitation of NuGet package cache

See original GitHub issue

I am using version 2.1.300-preview2-008251 of the SDK and I am getting this failure multiple times when building inside VS. Building from the command line completes successfully.

Is that enough to consider that you are at least unblocked from working on that issue?

Code has been updated to not use the problem package. I’m not blocked anymore.
