Cannot Specify: compactLayoutAssignment

I am receiving the following errors when I deploy 3 new Knowledge Base Article Types:

File Name: objects/External_QA__kav.object
Full Name: External_QA__kav
Action: NO ACTION
Result: FAILED
Problem: Cannot specify: compactLayoutAssignment for Knowledge Article Type

File Name: objects/Internal_QA__kav.object
Full Name: Internal_QA__kav
Action: NO ACTION
Result: FAILED
Problem: Cannot specify: compactLayoutAssignment for Knowledge Article Type

File Name: objects/Overview__kav.object
Full Name: Overview__kav
Action: NO ACTION
Result: FAILED
Problem: Cannot specify: compactLayoutAssignment for Knowledge Article Type

I'm not sure what the error is for nor how to fix it. I've tried building a compact layout for each article type and redeploying and I get the same issue. I am deploying from an Enterprise Edition Developer Sandbox to an Enterprise Edition Full Sandbox - both on Spring 14. I am using the Eclipse IDE (version Kepler) with Salesforce plug-in (version 29).

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

This is a known bug with knowledge article deployment in the API version 29.0. This has been fixed in API version 30.0. Please use version 30 and it should do the trick for you.
