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.

    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.

    Still getting this in 2018.3.0f2 when importing the Post Processing 2.0 Stack (2.1.2 via Packages).

    Same errors with Unity Unity 2018.2.17f1 (64-bit) for many
    "(current owner)
    We can't assign a new GUID because the asset is in an immutable folder. The asset will be ignored."
    For example: "GUID [e6bac05ed1dc241cbb99cd35bbebdd7b] for asset 'Packages/com.unity.2d.spriteshape/Tests/Runtime/PlaceholderTests.cs' conflicts with:
    'Packages/com.unity.2d.animation/Tests/Runtime/PlaceholderTests.cs' (current owner)
    We can't assign a new GUID because the asset is in an immutable folder. The asset will be ignored."
    Provide the solution.
    Is not fixed.

    We also get this error for PostProcessing in 2018.2.6.
    Is there a way to fix this without upgrading to 2018.3?

    I got this error while setting up my folder hierarchy, it happened after creating a template structure and copy/pasting it, causing a warning for every sub-folder. I went through and deleted the .meta files in the non-template hierarchy causing unity to regenerate them and voila, warnings gone.
