+Ok, I think I found the issue. This is not a bug. The problem is the
+following declaration:
+
+[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")]
+
+It means that every time you compile the assembly, it will get a new
+version number. If you compile the xfer assembly both in Windows and
+in Linux, you'll get the same assembly, but with two different
+versions. Even if you use the same key, the strong name will be
+different. And that's why the system can't find the assembly, because
+the copy it has has a different strong name.
+
+To fix this just remove the "*" and add a complete version number. Or
+compile the assembly only once and copy the same over all systems.
+
+Can you please confirm that this is the problem?
