@cdunford are you still having issues here. Did the workaround that Stephen provided work for you?

Thanks

[cdunford]

@neilpeterson - yes the workaround worked; sorry for taking a while to respond.

@cdunford hey no worries at all, thanks for getting back. We are tracking the uber-issue at the below link.

I will close this one now.

Thanks again.

FYI, the fix for this bug has just been released in v0.8.4 (by picking up new dotnet installation scripts). I haven't been able to actually tested this for myself, though.
