# Microsoft introduces a bug in a later version # Microsoft introduces a bug in a later version
Although rare, it is possible that by using a later version of a NuGet package than the one I used to write the book, you experience different behavior, especially negative behavior if it is due to a bug. Although rare, it is possible that by using a later version of a NuGet package than the one I used to write the book, you experience different behavior, especially negative behavior if it is due to a bug or a fix to a bug.
For example, in the `Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Binder` package, versions `7.0.3` and `7.0.4` have a bug that causes an exception to be thrown when it tries to parse a trace level set in an `appsettings.json` file. Previous versions from `7.0.0` to `7.0.2` did not have this bug. For example, in the `Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Binder` package, versions `7.0.3` or later fix a bug that causes an exception to be thrown when it tries to parse a trace level set in an `appsettings.json` file. Previous versions `7.0.2` and earlier including .NET 6 did not have this bug fix and so the book code.

In Step 1, you add package references to enable an `appsettings.json` file to configure a trace switch. If you reference `Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Binder` package versions `7.0.3` or `7.0.4`, they have a bug that causes an exception to be thrown, as shown in the following output: In Step 1, you add package references to enable an `appsettings.json` file to configure a trace switch. If you reference `Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Binder` package versions `7.0.3` or later, then they have fixed an ancient bug, but the fix means that unless we change how we set the trace switch level an exception will be thrown, as shown in the following output:

Until Microsoft fixes the bug, use version `7.0.2`, the latest version that works correctly, as shown in the following markup: Originally, it seemed the only fix was to avoid later versions, so use 7.0.2 or earlier. But the change in 7.0.3 was to fix a bug, so we need a solution that will allow us to use the latest package version and also works for older versions too.
```xml
<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Binder" Version="7.0.2" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.Json" Version="7.0.0" />
<!--The following packages are included anyway due to dependencies--> To fix the issue, we must set both the `Level` property and the `Value` property of the trace switch, as shown in the following code:
<!--<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.FileExtensions" Version="7.0.0" />--> ```json
<!--<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration" Version="7.0.0" />--> {
</ItemGroup> "PacktSwitch": {
"Value": "Info", // Must be set to work with 7.0.3 or later.
"Level": "Info" // To work with 7.0.2 or earlier including .NET 6.
}
}
``` ```
