.Net Core Job - reading resource image is crashing runtime in Azure.

Suddenly my Azure Job started failing runtime. Works fine on my local. The build machine was migrated (not aware much on details of migration).

var bmp = new Bitmap(100, 100); // Works ok. Since loads it from System.Drawing.Common 4.5

var resourceBmp = TestResources.First; // Crashes runtime trying to load System.Drawing.Common 4.0.2.1

Exception:
Could not load file or assembly 'System.Drawing.Common, Version=4.0.2.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51'. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (0x80131040)

My assumptions is that ResourceManager is probably having reference to version 4.0.2.1, and is not respecting reference to 4.5 of the Job itself (I am using version System.Drawing.Common 4.5 for our third party Nuget as well).
All this was working fine.

Can it be affected by some newer version of .Net SDK?
How to force ResourceManager to use new version? I mean some kind of bindingRedirect for .NetCore App

    So the issue was in newer .Net SDK (5.0) which was installed on build machine. It was not compatible for some reason with System.Drawing.Common.dll coming from nuget packages <5.0
    Updated that package to 5.0 and it fixed the issue. Still strange issue, and strange exception, why it was referring to 4.0.2.1 (which seems that does not even exist in Nuget)
