FAKE CLIs restore step fails on some machines, but .paket/paket.exe restore works

[atlemann]

Description

I have some Windows Server 2008 TeamCity build agents which fail when building using FAKE CLI. The NuGet restore process fails with a bunch of exceptions, however doing a .paket/paket.exe restore works fine.

Repro steps

I'm not sure, it works on my workstation and linux build agents, but none of my Windows build agents.

Expected behavior

Build to pass

Actual behavior

Build fails. See attached build log:
build.log

Known workarounds

1. First run .paket/paket.exe restore
2. then run build.cmd

Adding <DotnetCliToolTargetFramework>netcoreapp2.0</DotnetCliToolTargetFramework> fixes this issue. Now my build.proj file looks like this:

<Project>
  <Import Project="Sdk.props" Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk" />

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework>
    <DotnetCliToolTargetFramework>netcoreapp2.0</DotnetCliToolTargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <DotNetCliToolReference Include="dotnet-fake" Version="5.*" />
  </ItemGroup>

  <Import Project="Sdk.targets" Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk" />

  <PropertyGroup>
    <RepoRootDir>$([System.IO.Path]::GetFullPath("$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)"))</RepoRootDir>

    <FakeParallel Condition="'$(Parallel)' == 'true'">--parallel 3</FakeParallel>

  </PropertyGroup>

  <Target Name="Build">
