✅ dotnet pack command fails

Hello, I'm trying to package a library, but dotnet pack fails to create the package. The docs says I should build the project it beforehand, or not use the --no-build flag, but I didn't specify the flag. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/reference/errors-and-warnings/nu5026 
c#
dotnet pack src/UaDetector --configuration Release --output packages
c#
dotnet pack src/UaDetector --configuration Release --output packages
The file '/home/runner/work/UaDetector/UaDetector/src/UaDetector/bin/Release/net462/UaDetector.dll' to be packed was not found on disk.

I wonder whether GeneratePackageOnBuild might be messing it up?

Yes... That was the problem Thank you so much Why is that option even available if it messes with packaging...

Lol, what a guess My guess is that it causes the package to happen on build just fine... But breaks a explicit package? See if there's an open issue for it

There was apparently an issue, and this is by design: https://github.com/NuGet/Home/issues/11691#issuecomment-1085102122
