Publish-Module fails with NuGet.Build.Tasks.Pack.targets(198,5) error : Index was outside the bounds of the array - powershell

Question

I've upgraded to dotnet sdk version 3.1 and am trying to publish my powershell module. I am using powershell 5.1.
I run the command:
Publish-Module -Path "C:\sources\myModules\InstallationUtils\" -NuGetApiKey "xxxxxxx" -Repository internal.packages.org"
and get the error:
[C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp\469d7c83-6e1a-4366-b948-6a415b0279be\Temp.csproj]
Successfully created package

Is anyone have similar issues and managed to fix it?
thanks

Answer 1

I have a work around, which involves replacing the old version of version nuget.exe in
C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\PowerShell\PowerShellGet\
with the latest version of nuget.exe .
I found the work around on SQLDBAWithABeard but I am hoping that there is a better solution than this?
