You might want to look at what I wrote here:

If it's the same issue, I don't think it has anything to do with implicit references.

Seeing the other threads about this linking issue, and your decision to
exercise your disclaimer clause to now be in favour of implicit linking,
could we expect an update for MfA to go back to implicit linking?  This
linker issue is a blocker for my work on MonoGame as even adding the
reference to Lidgren to my startup project doesn't fix the linker error.

    I had thought that we always had this requirement, and Visual Studio
    has frequently enforced this requirement. I don't know why things
    have changed in 4.2. :-/

    Doubly odd is that .apk inclusion apparently will include implicitly
    referenced assemblies (based on other mailing list threads), while
    fast deployment won't.

    Be that as it may, I'm currently of the opinion [0] that assemblies
    should be explicitly referenced, as it's less "magical" and ensures
    that the App developer knows which assemblies will be included (and
    thus have some sort of guide for how big the resulting app will be).
    Implicitly pulling things in could make things harder, as you start
    wondering why assembly X is being stored in your app...
