VS Tools for Universal Windows Apps 1.1 can't create app package anymore

I Upgraded VS20154 to the Visual Studio Tools for Universal Windows Apps. Local build works fine in debugg configuration. But when I try to create the app package I get this error:

Severity Code Description Project File Line

Manifest references file 'MoneyManager.Windows.dll' which is not part of the payload.   MoneyManager.Windows    C:\Users\ninop\Documents\GitHub\MoneyManager\Src\MoneyManager.Windows\Package.appxmanifest  

Does anyhoner have an idea how to fix that?

Thanks NPadrutt

It appears there is an answer on the MSDN Forums:

To workaround this issue, add the below ItemGroup in your project file and regenerate the package.

<ItemGroup> <AppxSystemBinary Include="<Assembly Mentioned in the error>" /> </ItemGroup>

For example, if the assembly name is App1.dll, include:

<ItemGroup> <AppxSystemBinary Include="App1.dll" /> </ItemGroup>
