Glimpse.EF.AlternateType.GlimpseDbProviderServices' not found

Question

VS2013 Update 2

I am getting the following error:

Constructor on type 'Glimpse.EF.AlternateType.GlimpseDbProviderServices' not found.

After following advice on How can I get Glimpse to work with EF6? I downgraded EF to 6.02 (from 6.1.1) but am still getting the error. I have also ensured that I no longer hvae Glimpse referenced anywhere in the solution.

Is there another work around to get my project to run up?

EDIT

Added stack trace for what it is worth:

Has anyone got any insight here? I am still dead in the water. — TheEdge, Jun 25 '14 at 00:14
Followed up within github as an issue - https://github.com/Glimpse/Glimpse/issues/474#issuecomment-47049380 — anthonyv, Jun 25 '14 at 10:57
@RichardSimpson No I did not get anywhere. I ultimately stripped Glimpse out of the project and have not come back to look at it again as of yet. — TheEdge, Sep 10 '14 at 23:24
