Strange Error Installing from NuGet

See original GitHub issue

FWIW, I am getting the following error when trying to install the NuGet package (this is from a new Class Library from scratch – with Serilog 1.5.14 installed within it):

Attempting to gather dependency information for package 'SerilogTimings.1.0.0-beta-26' with respect to project 'ClassLibrary1', targeting '.NETFramework,Version=v4.5.1'
Attempting to resolve dependencies for package 'SerilogTimings.1.0.0-beta-26' with DependencyBehavior 'Lowest'
Resolving actions to install package 'SerilogTimings.1.0.0-beta-26'

Removed package 'SerilogTimings.1.0.0-beta-26 : Serilog [1.5.14, )' from folder '..\ClassLibrary1\packages'

The Serilog [1.5.14, ) is key, I am thinking. Maybe a bad token somewhere?

Okay… I have absolutely no idea how this comes about, but tooling problems with System.Runtime.dll aren’t anything new unfortunately.

If the package itself doesn’t reference System.Runtime.dll as a framework assembly, it won’t build
If it does reference it, this error…

To fix it:

Manually add a reference to C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETPortable\v4.5\Profile\Profile259\System.Runtime.dll to your project
Install SerilogTimings
Remove the System.Runtime.dll reference
Build

Any luck with this recipe?

Call me crazy, but I’ve just bumped the version of this package to 2.0-rc and shifted the whole thing to Serilog 2.0.

https://github.com/nblumhardt/serilog-timings/commit/55298e1588cf8e3bd195b43aa5cfc1901a5a2dbb

The 1.0-* packages are still there for Serilog 1.5 support, but this issue makes them a bit painful. Time to move forward 😃
