Resources referred by the project are missing

I'm building a .NET 7.0 DevExpress application on Azure DevOps. The Advanced Installer file (attached) have the path to all DLL files as an absolute path.

The pipeline (attached) restores the DLLs using NuGet resulting in the DLL files being in a different location compared to what is saved in the AI file.

This causes an error message (attached) stopping me from building the setup file.

What is the correct approach to building a Advanced Installer .AI file to be used on Azure DevOps in this case?

Hello,

This causes an error message (attached) stopping me from building the setup file.
Do you know the path where these DLLs will be downloaded? If so, we can make a connection between the folder from your Advanced Installer project and the folder on disk through our Synchronized Folders support.

Hope this helps!
