You can disable this with content:none option.

That said: what else would you suggest.

Paket is copying / creating extra files, from package's content -folder to
project's root folder.
Is this really wanted behavior?

How to reproduce:
I create a new folder and add paket.bootstrapper.exe and this
paket.dependencies to the folder:

source https://www.nuget.org/api/v2

nuget ABCpdf 10.1.0.3 framework: >= net40
nuget log4net 2.0.0
nuget Oracle.ManagedDataAccess framework: >= net40

Now, under that folder I create a new project called ConsoleApplication1.
I also copy to this the project folder this file, paket.references:

ABCpdf
log4net
Oracle.ManagedDataAccess

Then I run paket.bootstrapper.exe to get the latest version of paket.exe
(in my case it was 2.12.0.0). Then I run paket install
What happens is that under my ConsoleApplication1 are new files of
ABCpdf.chm (5 megabytes binary, not very happy to add this to git) and
net40*.xdt files.

So should this paket.dependencies help?

source https://www.nuget.org/api/v2

nuget ABCpdf 10.1.0.3 framework: >= net40 content: none
nuget log4net 2.0.0
nuget Oracle.ManagedDataAccess framework: >= net40 content: none

It doesn't...

source https://www.nuget.org/api/v2

nuget ABCpdf 10.1.0.3 framework: >= net40, content: none
nuget log4net 2.0.0
nuget Oracle.ManagedDataAccess framework: >= net40, content: none

works.

I changed the title to reflect the bug in install settings

Thanks!
