Paket update breaks VFPT solution

[dungpa]

I ran

.paket/paket.exe update

on VFPT solution and the solution no longer compiles.

Particularly, FsXaml.Wpf references have been removed from FSharpVSPowerTools.Logic project https://github.com/fsprojects/VisualFSharpPowerTools/blob/master/src/FSharpVSPowerTools.Logic/FSharpVSPowerTools.Logic.fsproj. It doesn't change anything if I do selective update (not changing FsXaml.Wpf version).

I start seeing this issue from version 0.9.x.

ok will check

[forki]

found it. We now create the framework assembly references directly with Paket. Since you still have "custom" framework references Paket refuses to override these. You need to try really really --hard ;-)

So please do the following:

.paket/paket.exe install --hard 
git commit -m "Installing framework assemblies with new Paket version"
.paket/paket.exe update

What do custom framework references mean? In any case, I would appreciate some error messages from Paket that points me to a right direction.

See https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/blob/master/tests/Paket.Tests/Nuspec/FsXaml.Wpf.nuspec#L19

It's not really an error. Paket just assumes you have manually installed that package and skips the install.

It already traced that information in verbose mode. I changed this and now you get a warning when paket skips the install.

It doesn't seem to work using these exact steps you mentioned. Could you take a look?

[forki]

sure. will send PR

[forki]

seems the install --hard work, but something changed after update.

Investigating...

looks like FsXaml.Wpf update to 0.9.9 is breaking

forki/FSharpVSPowerTools@d20d966 worked locally - why is it failing on appveyor?
