Maybe, but I couldn’t check it anyhow. I think I will just report it in some spare time 😉

It is weird indeed. It would understand if you were having issues at runtime, as those resources may be required when the assembly is being loaded. But why it is required at build-time is a mystery. Unless there is a VS service running underneath that needs it for whatever other reason?

Hey Cosette,
thank you for this recommendation 🙂 Maybe if my app reaches enough popularity one day, I’ll think of making a use of it!
That only shows how important is localization and how community cares about it.

Hey,
no, I didn’t find the reason behind that error. I don’t get why I cannot build a project, because of missing resources from another project which is only referenced. I will try to explore build’s output once more and if I don’t find anything more, I’ll report a bug to Xamarin, as it seems abnormal.

To make Android app localization a more streamlined process, I warmly recommend you manage your projects with the localization platform https://poeditor.com
It’s a great collaborative tool with a clean interface and many possibilities to automate the l10n workflow (integrations with Github/Bitbucket/Gitlab, Translation Memory etc.)

Cheers,
Cosette

Did you manage to find the cause of the problem you describe at the end of your post?
