Dependency resolution for .NETFramework4.5 and .NETPortable0.0-wp8+netcore45+net45+wp81+wpa81 #1753

Description

@pedrofelixsky

In my project I'm using Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client, which includes the following in the nuspec file

    <dependencies>
      <group targetFramework=".NETFramework4.5">
        <dependency id="Newtonsoft.Json" version="6.0.4" />
      </group>
      <group targetFramework=".NETPortable0.0-wp8+netcore45+net45+wp81+wpa81">
        <dependency id="Newtonsoft.Json" version="6.0.4" />
        <dependency id="Microsoft.Net.Http" version="2.2.22" />
      </group>
    </dependencies>

However, Paket seems to be using the second group (.NETPortable0.0-wp8+netcore45+net45+wp81+wpa81) even for .NETFramework4.5. This is visible in two places

  • The paket.lock file contains
Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client (5.2.3) - framework: >= net45
    Microsoft.Net.Http (>= 2.2.22) - framework: >= net45, portable-wp80+win+net45+wp81+wpa81
  • The .csproj started including the Microsoft.Net.Http assemblies
<When Condition="$(TargetFrameworkIdentifier) == '.NETFramework' And   ($(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.5' Or $(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.5.1' Or $(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.5.2' Or $(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.5.3' Or $(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.6' Or $(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.6.1' Or $(TargetFrameworkVersion) == 'v4.6.2')">
      <ItemGroup>
        <Reference Include="System.Net.Http.Extensions">
          <HintPath>..\..\..\packages\Microsoft.Net.Http\lib\net45\System.Net.Http.Extensions.dll</HintPath>
          <Private>True</Private>
          <Paket>True</Paket>
        </Reference>
        <Reference Include="System.Net.Http.Primitives">
          <HintPath>..\..\..\packages\Microsoft.Net.Http\lib\net45\System.Net.Http.Primitives.dll</HintPath>
          <Private>True</Private>
          <Paket>True</Paket>
        </Reference>
        <Reference Include="System.Net.Http.WebRequest">
          <Paket>True</Paket>
        </Reference>
      </ItemGroup>
  </When>  

If I add framework: >= net45 to the paket.dependencies file the behavior is the same.

This also appears to have been a change from past behavior, however if I revert back to version 2.66.0 the behavior is the same.
Can you provide me some information to help understand this behavior.
Thanks.
