Console Warnings For Duplicate GUIDs For Plugins Shipped In Packages

XR SDK

-

End users and Unity employees have reported the presence of console messages that warn of duplicate GUIDs. This is caused by the way that packages are duplicated in the cache.

GUID [dbca4b5d18c5b4a59ad11c981347242d] for asset 'Packages/com.unity.xr.arkit/Runtime/iOS/UnityARKit.a' conflicts with:
'/Users/matt/Library/Unity/cache/packages/packages.unity.com/com.unity.xr.arkit@1.0.0-preview.12/Runtime/iOS/UnityARKit.a' (current owner)
We can't assign a new GUID because the asset is in an immutable folder. The asset will be ignored.

    I have tried with Unity 2019.2.4f1 and it still has a lot of warnings (70+)

    Example:

    GUID [a2960ffde020f27409e070d92fb2e00b] for asset 'Packages/com.unity.postprocessing/PostProcessing/Textures/Lens Dirt/LensDirt02.png' conflicts with:
    'Assets/PostProcessing/Textures/Lens Dirt/LensDirt02.png' (current owner)

    This problem hasn't been fixed, plenty of warnings have appeared when importing packages.

    Still occurring in LTS 2018.4.5f1. It generates 836 warning messages in our project!

    I have the same error "dublicated GUIDs". I got it fixed. I uninstalled it from Window => Package Manager "Post Processing". Then I downloaded and imported Post Processing Stack V2 from Asset store. Errors no longer appear.

    Me helps delete the duplicates and then:
    Go to Edit => Preferences. In the Preferences window go to GI Cache Tab.
    And then click clean cache.
    Restart Unity

    This problem is not fixed.

    I have the same error for multiple files part of the Post Processing Stack v2 after uninstalling the old githug version I had and re installing it from the package manager.

    I uninstalled it and re installing it from an empty scene and I'm running Unity 2018.3.2f1

    Please help.

    If there are no immediate solution, can I please be pointed to information on how to resolve GUID conflicts? I dont mind fixing it manually for now.
