Finally got back to this.
I did not get the errors with Wix3.0. When I moved to 3.5 so that I had VS2010
support, I had to recreate the projects. The MergeModule Projects compile
fine, it is only the actual setup project that gives the error when it
references to MergeModules.
Each MergeModule needed/used is added as a reference to the setup project. I
get the same error regardless of whether I run from inside VS2010 or from
MSBuild.
Today, I got the latest build that has Votive2010 back in, (3.5.0704.0); the
behavior has not changed.
I had previously included the VS2010 output; here is the MSBuild output
(including the commandline used to start the build of the install).
Thanks,
John
