[wix-users] Unresolved bind-time variable !(bind.packageDescription.MsiPackageID) is behaving differently from other packageXXXX bindings

[Blair Murri]

The variable names are case sensitive? Some strange copy-paste issue?

Would appear to be a bug. Can you share a minimal repro? Does it happen in any other projects?

Subject: [wix-users] Unresolved bind-time variable !(bind.packageDescription.MsiPackageID) is behaving differently from other packageXXXX bindings

Hi,

I am trying to use the !(bind.packageDescription.MsiPackageID) in my bundle
just like other available binding variables such as
!(bind.packageName.MsiPackageID) or !(bind.packageVersion.MsiPackageID).

Even though packageName and packageVersion would not return any error,
packageDescription is returning "Unresolved bind-time variable".

In the msi, under Package element, I am assigning the Description attribute.

I have WiX Toolset v3.11.1.2318.

Would anybody have any clue what may cause this?
