Can not package my project, because one of my plugin dll’s got locked by UE4Editor, and it reports that it can not build it.
4.10 was ok.
Or not because of this.

No, it still fails. 
What is strange it already linked an .exe, but still fails on that library

This are ActionsToExecute generated by UnrealBuildTool. If I run them in command line lib.exe complains on bad option -

LINK : fatal error LNK1117: syntax error in option ''No that is not the reason. For some reason F:\Geal.4.11\Plugins\GeographicPlugin\Intermediate\Build\Win64\Geal\Development\Geal-GeographicPlugin.lib.response is empty, i think that is the case. For UE4Editor builds it contains some data.
I think this patch to UnrealBuildTool resolves the problem. Not sure if AddModule should be called in Binary is not null. But project can be packed now. Or maybe AddExtraModules() should be patched to test Module.Binary == null, like that is done in PreBuildSetup(), so i am not sending patch to UE. Epics, you should check this by yourself I think.

Are you able to package your project or any new project without this specific plugin included? We do not provide support for third-party plugins and I have not seen a GeographicPlugin.lib in any of my files when searching.
Please provide additional information, included fully updated logs.
Thanks!
Hello, ,
that is the problem with Unreal build tools, I attached a test project in one of answers. And also a patch how to fix it.
