Hi,

I just tried to use this project for generating the AssemblyInfo. I am using the sameple code
<AssemblyInfo CodeLanguage="CS" OutputFile="VersionInfo.cs" AssemblyVersion="1.0.0.0" AssemblyFileVersion="1.0.0.0" />
However, dotnet build fails:

MyProject.csproj(34,3): error MSB4062: The "MSBuild.Community.Tasks.AssemblyInfo" task could not be loaded from the assembly $MyPath\.nuget\packages\msbuildtasks\1.5.0.235\build\\..\tools\MSBuild.Community.Tasks.dll. Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Build.Utilities.v4.0, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The system cannot find the file specified. Confirm that the <UsingTask> declaration is correct, that the assembly and all its dependencies are available, and that the task contains a public class that implements Microsoft.Build.Framework.ITask.

The path to MSBuild.Community.Tasks.dll exists.
I am using dotnet, my project is an Sdk Style project (Microsoft.NET.Sdk) and my tagetfranework is netstandard2.0

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
...
<TargetFrameworks>netstandard2.0</TargetFrameworks>

Bit old now but after hours of staring at forum posts and diagnostic output I've come to the conclusion that it's related to this
