Trying to build a Xamarin.Android project in release mode, with Like SDK assemblies only enabled is producing the following error:

    /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/External/xbuild/Xamarin/Android/Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(5,5): Error MSB4018: The "LinkAssemblies" task failed unexpectedly.
Java.Interop.Tools.Diagnostics.XamarinAndroidException: error XA2006: Could not resolve reference to 'System.Void Android.Support.CustomTabs.CustomTabsIntent::LaunchUrl(Android.App.Activity,Android.Net.Uri)' (defined in assembly 'Plugin.Share, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null') with scope 'Xamarin.Android.Support.CustomTabs, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. When the scope is different from the defining assembly, it usually means that the type is forwarded. ---> Mono.Cecil.ResolutionException: Failed to resolve System.Void Android.Support.CustomTabs.CustomTabsIntent::LaunchUrl(Android.App.Activity,Android.Net.Uri)

Configuration:

  • macOS Sierra 10.12.5
  • Visual Studio for Mac 7.0.1 (build 24)
  • Xamarin.Android 7.3.1.2
  • Project Target SDK: API 25 (Nougat 7.1)

The Android SDK's area all up to date:

As is the compilers and repositories:

I've also tried to ignore the Plugin.Share assembly in the project configurations. None of this worked, the only way I could compile the app was by disabling linking.
