When there is something in paket.dependencies that Paket doesn't understand, it tells you exactly where, and what the problem is. For an error in paket.lock, I only got

Paket failed with:
    Input string was not in a correct format.

This should at least say that it's about the lock file, so the user knows where to start looking.

How did the wrong lock file look like?

I had tried to allow a "minimum" version at the top level:

NUGET
  remote: https://nuget.org/api/v2
  specs:
    FAKE (>= 4.9.3)

I just added this as an integration test and it now shows a better error message, but why do you change the lockfile manually?

yeah, lock files are usually not edited manually.
