No overload for method "AddDebug" takes 1 arguments

Question

I try to upgrade .net core sdk from 2.2 to 3.1 in my project. In .net core sdk 2.2, I used loggerFactory.AddDebug(Enum.Parse(this.Configuration.GetSection("Logging:Debug:LogLevel:Default").Value)); works fine. But in .net core sdk 3.1, I use same code, I getting "No overload for method "AddDebug" takes 1 arguments" error. I installed Microsoft.Extensions.Logging package v3.1.5 via nuget package manager.

If you check the definition of AddDebug() method in version 2.2 project, you would find the method is obsolete and the AddDebug(this ILoggingBuilder builder) is recommended alternative.

    //
    // Summary:
    //     Adds a debug logger that is enabled for Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.LogLevels
    //     of minLevel or higher.
    //
    // Parameters:
    //   factory:
    //     The extension method argument.
    //
    //   minLevel:
    //     The minimum Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.LogLevel to be logged
    [Obsolete("This method is obsolete and will be removed in a future version. The recommended alternative is AddDebug(this ILoggingBuilder builder).")]
    public static ILoggerFactory AddDebug(this ILoggerFactory factory, LogLevel minLevel);

And above method has been removed from Microsoft.Extensions.Logging namespace in version 3.0 and higher.
