Re: Problem with Publisher Policy File (Can't install)

Looking at my "policy.0.1.MyCompany.MyAssembly.NET.dll" file, in ILDASM, the
only assembly it seems to reference is mscorlib.

When I look at the GAC viewer, I actually see there's 2 copies of mscorlib -
but they're exactly the SAME!!! (Same version, culture, name, public
key)?!? This shouldn't be happening should it? I also see that I seem to
have 4 identical copies of MS.VSDesigner in the GAC. This is on a fully
patched WinXP Pro sp2 machine.

I tried installing on my SBS 2k3 server, and I get the same error trying to
put "policy.0.1.MyCompany.MyAssembly.NET.dll" in the GAC. The GAC on the
SBS box doesn't seem to have duplicate assemblies, so maybe that's not the
problem.

But, I may have 2 separate problems: I can't install
"policy.0.1.MyCompany.MyAssembly.NET.dll" into the GAC, and the GAC on my XP
machine seems to have multiple copies of the same assembly.
