UE4.6.1 "Externally Referenced" on basic map

This solution worked, but what puzzles me is why has this bug not been fixed? The bug was posted a year ago.

In case anyone at Epic is listening. I copied my 4.9.2 project and opened it with a vanilla build of 4.11, which I converted in place. The warning showed up when the 4.11 version opened.
