Unclear build warning message and no indicator on VS Mac IDE #9655

I'm currently seeing the following build warning when trying to build an Android project on VSMac: Screenshot 2020-10-02 at 4 15 13 PM

which takes me to the following: Screenshot 2020-10-02 at 4 00 44 PM

Although this implies that there is something wrong with the project reference, it is really difficult to understand how to approach and fix the issue. As seen here, there is no indication of the issue shown in the References: Screenshot 2020-10-02 at 4 22 07 PM

To fix this issue, I needed to remove my project from references, add it back, and then hope that it would work - whereas on VS Windows, the issues are automatically fixed upon opening the project.

For more context, here is the broken project: recipeSearch.zip
