Can't pack project type templates from new csproj files

[rkachowski]

Description

After creating a new project via visual studio 2015 community edition and initializing paket, the paket.exe pack command doesn't create a nupkg file as explained in the paket.template documentation.

Repro steps

Please provide the steps required to reproduce the problem

1. Create a new default class library project via Visual Studio Community 2015
2. Run paket.exe init to create a blank paket.dependencies file
3. Run paket.exe install to generate the paket.lock file
4. Create a paket.template file at the top of the dir with the contents below
5. Build the solution under the release configuration via Visual Studio
6. Run paket.exe pack output bin version 1.0.0 templatefile paket.template

paket.template contents

type project
licenseUrl http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

Expected behavior

Paket bundles the output of the project (in this case ClassLibrary1.dll ) into a nupkg file available in the bin dir.

Actual behavior

Paket runs but does not create the nupkg file. If pack is run before the project is built (i.e. before the ClassLibrary1.dll exists in the bin/Release dir) Paket will error out and mention that it cannot find the output files.

Related information

• OSX 10.10
• Paket version 2.58.12.0
• Mono JIT compiler version 4.2.2

Attached is the sample project - output from a new visual studio class library project
