Resolution

Create a custom targets file to insert a custom target post-package that opens the package manifest, removes the class attribute from each PermissionSet element, and saves the modified manifest.

An example custom targets file is shown below. It should be named “Custom.After.Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.targets” and placed in the “<Program Files (x86)>\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\SharePointTools” folder.
