pac canvas unpack should identify duplicate property ownership behind PA3003

[ghostlyd]

Summary

pac canvas unpack reports PA3003 / PA3011 when a canvas package contains a duplicated control property emitted once as a normal rule and once through dynamic/source metadata. The error is actionable, but the diagnostics point only to generated YAML line numbers and do not identify the source control/property ownership conflict in the .msapp JSON.

This came up while round-tripping a Power Apps canvas app package that had a duplicate ZIndex property on a gallery template-derived control. The local remediation was to strip gallery-template ZIndex state before packing, but the tooling error was difficult to map back to source.

Environment

• pac version failed: Command '['pac', '--version']' returned non-zero exit status 1.
• Darwin JNPR-MAC-KH9J9F 25.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 25.4.0: Thu Mar 19 19:33:25 PDT 2026; root:xnu-12377.101.15~1/RELEASE_ARM64_T6041 arm64
• Source format version observed by pac canvas unpack: 0.24
• App type: classic canvas app, exported/imported .msapp

Expected behavior

The tooling should either emit a source-path/control-name/property diagnostic for duplicate property ownership before YAML generation, or normalize duplicate property ownership deterministically when one copy is metadata/dynamic state and the other is an ordinary rule.

Actual behavior

pac canvas unpack fails roundtrip validation with PA3003 and PA3011 and only reports generated YAML line numbers.

thank you for submitting this issue. Unfortunately, we will need the msapp file to proceed.
Given that public forums are not a secure way to submit files which may contain sensitive information, we recommend creating a support ticket on Power Apps, as our team owns the 'pac canvas' commands. With that support ticket, attach the msapp you're experiencing the error with, and include the copy of the command output and mention the link to this issue so we can help others in the future.
