Repro steps

Used to work before, not sure what changed now.

Expected behavior

NuGet package to be packed

Actual behavior

Error above

Known workarounds

1. Pack on Windows instead
2. Set dotnet version to 2.1.4 in global.json file for linux to work

Seems to be a duplicate of #3540, which was fixed with #3542. You're using MSBuild 15 on Windows (via .NET SDK 2.1.500) and MSBuild 16 on Linux (2.1.603). Can you try to update Paket (or Paket.Restore.targets) and retry again?

[atlemann]

Ok, I'll try that. For whatever reason Paket is stuck on v5.194. Maybe since I'm using it as a global CLI tool.

[atlemann]

Sorry for creating a duplicate issue. I'm so used to Paket updating itself. Guess it doesn't when used as a global tool. Updating Paket manually and doing a restore fixed the problem. Thanks!

[inosik]

I'm so used to Paket updating itself.

It's actually the bootstrapper which updates Paket. The actual Paket tool can't update itself.

[atlemann]

Right, I was using it in magic-mode before the dotnet global tool was available.
