One of those oddball reference issues

[Earl]

I'm getting a weird message with a reference to an assembly I have used in
the past and upgraded today:

Warning: The dependency 'ReplSet, Version=1.0.1951.254, Culture=neutral' in
project 'CPN' cannot be copied to the run directory because it would
overwrite the reference 'ReplSet, Version=1.0.1991.23034, Culture=neutral'.

I've done a search for all copies of ReplSet and none exist on the system
with a version number ending in .254. I do have the .23034 version (which is
the latest).

Nor can I find any reference to .254 in the project -- except when I try to
add .23034.

I'm familiar with the issue when trying to create a a class for full
framework and using it in CF, but that's not the issue here.

How can I track down where this reference to .254 is coming from?

Would still be interested in how I can troubleshoot this issue, but in the
interim, the only solution I found was to go in and force a version number
on the library file and rebuild the main app from there.

Apparently, I had referenced a debug version of the .dll and when I compiled
a release version, the main program still kept referring to the old .254
version -- no matter that I had removed the reference. So I forced the new
release version to be .254 and no exceptions. Anyone have any idea what the
issue is or how to resolve it without a fixed version number?
