Referencing XAML resources

[sergey-tihon]

When I you reference to MahApps.Metro.Resources

Paket add following code into project file

    <Content Include="Resources\Icons.xaml">
      <Paket>True</Paket>
    </Content>

In the same time NuGet add it like

    <Page Include="Resources\Icons.xaml">
      <Generator>MSBuild:Compile</Generator>
      <SubType>Designer</SubType>
    </Page>

As a result when MSBuild does not compile xaml file and application crashes in the runtime when tries to load resources.

One more note, project previously used NuGet, it contains <Page> node, so Paket added duplicate files with <Content> nodes.

As well as Paket adds

<Content Include="Resources\Entypo.ttf">
      <Paket>True</Paket>
</Content>

even if NuGet already added this as

<Resource Include="Resources\Entypo.ttf" />

(leads to duplication in file explorer)

I assume our xaml support is pretty poor (read as non-existent). We could
need some help here.

Not sure that I know how to support all cases...

• Migration from NuGet
• Install dependencies correctly
• Track/Update such dependencies

Could please mark this issues and up-for-grabs and mention some files that should be changed according to you feelings 😏

I assume the fix is needed in https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/blob/master/src/Paket.Core/ProjectFile.fs#L447
