Package uses root namespace that is one of my main class names

I'm using IronPython for my project. The setup is following:

Project.Main  - MyProject.Python     - IronPython package

Project.Main has a class called Community that is one of the main classes. It is used everywhere.

Now has IronPython a namespace called Community.CsharpSqlite with a class called Sqlite3.

• I do not need to reference this class within MyProject.Main
• I am not using any classes directly from the IronPython package within MyProject.Main
• I only refer to wrapper classes in MyProject.Python.

All my code doesn't compile anymore though because I'm getting:

Error CS0118 'Community' is a namespace but is used like a type

This is a very large project and I do not want to start prefixing all my references to the Community class with a namespace prefix.

• Is there any workaround?
• Can I expose the IronPython namespaces only to MyProject.Python?
• I tried both Aliases and the PrivateAssets option but I get a warning symbol within the solution explorer and it does not seem to work (still the CS0118)
