VIs in Packed Project Library Are Erroneously Broken

VIs might break erroneously when built in a Packed Project Library that uses LabVIEW Classes. The build fails with the message: "This VI uses a dependency that has changed. The change requires this VI to be recompiled. This VI, however, is compiled into a Packed Project Library and cannot recompile by itself. You must rebuild the Packed Project Library to account for the changed dependency." However, rebuilding the Packed Project Library doesn't resolve the issue.
