We're only seeing this issue with Github Actions. If I complile locally, all is well. If I submit a PR for my project, I receive this error

error APPX1101: Payload contains two or more files with the same destination path 'Microsoft.Maui.Controls.pri'. Source files: [D:path-to-my-project.csproj::TargetFramework=net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0]

[arivoir]

@gcadmes-extron what I've seen is the error appear the second time you try to build a project. You should see the error easily if you compile again.

<PublishTrimmed Condition="'$(Configuration)' != 'Debug'">True</PublishTrimmed>

Turn off trimming or downgrade winappsdk to 1.5.240428000

@lgBlog any idea when is this going to be fixed?

[arivoir]

I'm testing with Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK version 1.6.240923002 and dotnet 8.0.403 and still seeing the same issue. Any news about fixing this?

[arivoir]

This bug is still happening in version 1.7.250401001. This is a critical bug for us. We needed to disable CI because Microsoft is not fixing this bug. Will it ever be fixed?
