Possible installation issue with Unity 6.5

[jesse-k]

There might be a small issue with installing FixedMathSharp in Unity 6.5. For me, installing with Git causes the package manager to get stuck on "Installing a new package".

It looks like the cause might be that in the package manifest, the path for the sample points to a specific scene, whereas Unity is expecting it to point to a folder. However, for me at least there's no indication of this when trying to install from Git, so it may not be obvious to users why installation appears to be getting hung up.

If you're interested, you can find further info and discussion in this Unity forum thread.

hi @jesse-k , thanks for calling this out and for linking the Unity discussion. You were spot on: the sample path in package.json was pointing to the scene asset instead of the sample folder, which Unity 6.5 now trips over in the Package Manager Samples tab.

I’ve updated both package manifests to point to Samples/FixedMathSharpDemo and verified the install in Unity 6.5. This should be fixed in v5.0.3. I'll wait for your confirmation before closing this incident.
