Minimal console app unhandled FileNotFoundException

See original GitHub issue

I installed the mac osx pkg installer from get.asp.net. I then created a very minimal hello world console app. I’ve ran dotnet restore which appears to have run successfully. Then when I run dotnet run I get this:

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Console, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
