Make sure you have the latest version of Skiasharp, clean your bin and obj and restart VS, this is not an issue with the plugin but a issue on your machine

[sk1llsh0t]

My project doesn't use skiasharp so I shouldn't have to install that package. I'll see if deleting everything in bin/obj folders fix the issue. I'll let you know.

[FreakyAli]

Your project uses FreakyControls, hence it uses skiasharp indirectly, make sure you update it to the latest at times vs doesn't do it

I shouldn't have to maintain dependencies of dependencies. Then I need to keep track to the right versions of implicit dependencies to use for all my dependencies. It should implicitly pull in the right dependencies based on what is referenced. I shouldn't have to explicitly add a package to my project i'm not using directly. It is a recipe for disaster.

I found this article which is my exact issue. https://github.com/dotnet/maui/issues/19645

This project appears to have had the same issue: https://github.com/fdmomtaz/WeightTracker-DotNetMaui/issues/1

They had to make some changes to the project to take care of this error as well.

Based on the weighttracker project mentioned above, he did the following commits to fix the issue...

https://github.com/fdmomtaz/WeightTracker-DotNetMaui/commit/b0966709d7ada5f3111a912fe2c8e3b853537ad3 https://github.com/fdmomtaz/WeightTracker-DotNetMaui/commit/4d1e1ba5c96b348aa264ef90d75708d1bca938a6

If i have time, i'll fork your develop branch, add these changes and see if the problem goes away. I'll let you know if it works...

As much as I agree there are times when this breaks and we have no control over this...
