Restoring the packages doesn't work

Can you please go side by side with Asp.Net packages versions ? I know that the project is WIP but setting the same version is more semantic.

AFAICT, this problem only impacts the GitHub middleware, which is the only one using System.Dynamic.Runtime. Sadly, NuGet.org doesn't allow removing a package to republish it, so downloading the right dependency yourself is currently the only option:

Heh no, it has nothing to do with semantic, just with convenience 😄

I agree it would make your life easier, but it would tie our development timeline to ASP.NET 5's roadmap, which is definitely not what we want (the CLR team shares the same concerns, and so do the Glimpse authors: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Glimpse/2.0.0-beta1)

Thanks for your blazing fast support. I'll add the dependency manually through the project.json file. I'll keep you posted.

FYI, I sent a ticket to the NuGet gallery team to remove the buggy package. I hope they will consider it serious enough to accept it.

The NuGet gallery team refused to remove the buggy package. We'll have to push a new version to fix that.

@PinpointTownes Did they explain their reasoning for not allowing removal of packages?

@PinpointTownes That version of System.Dynamic.Runtime isn't even available anymore.

They pretended it would have broken people (which was wrong, as the package couldn't be used correctly, anyway).

The alpha4 package (for RC2) won't be affected, because I pinned the right version when building the packages this time: https://github.com/aspnet-contrib/AspNet.Security.OAuth.Providers/blob/master/src/AspNet.Security.OAuth.GitHub/project.json#L45 😄
