Could not load file or assembly 'Dropbox.Api, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'

Just downloaded via NuGet the .NET SDK (v5.5), refreshed the reference to Dropbox.Api in the projects, and now the .NET projects that successfully used the previous SDK (v4) are now throwing this error when attempting to load the Dropbox.Api reference:

"Could not load file or assembly 'Dropbox.Api, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. A strongly-named assembly is required. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131044)"

    The current version of the .NET SDK is not currently strongly-named, but I'll raise this with the team to ask them to implement that.

    Thank you.  This will be a deal breaker if it's not implemented.

    The latest version of the Dropbox .NET SDK, v6.0.0, should now be strong-named and available via NuGet.

     

    Please give it a try and let us know if you run in to any issues. Thanks!
