Xamarin.Android build task fails
See original GitHub issueI’ve added the Xamarin.Android build task to my VSO Build, using the Hosted build agent. When VSO runs the task, it fails with the error message:
2015-08-20T16:39:01.2412835Z 1>CSC : 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. [C:\a\a815ee8d\phoneword\PhonewordAndroid\PhonewordAndroid.csproj]
I don’t have this problem when I build my Xamarin.Android project locally via Visual Studio 2015 or using the command line.

Same issue here… Changing to 6 solved it, but that’s definitely not optimal.
I can confirm - build is green if compile target is Android 6. Would prefer not to have to change that just to get my CI to work though 😐
