Do you have a concrete repro case?

I have nuget packages which (only) contain frameworkAssemblies references.
paket seems to process the assemblies fine, but doesn't add references to

Well, We have third party dependencies which we packaged "in" nuget packages. I'll see If i can come up with an isolated sample.

Here it is. I have the following package in a private repository:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<package xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2010/07/nuspec.xsd">
  <metadata>
    <id>TempPkg</id>
    <version>0.1</version>
    <title>TempPkg</title>
    <authors>MtW</authors>
    <owners>MtW</owners>
    <requireLicenseAcceptance>false</requireLicenseAcceptance>
    <description>TempPkg</description>
    <language />
    <dependencies>
    </dependencies>
    <frameworkAssemblies>
      <frameworkAssembly assemblyName="System.Xaml" />
    </frameworkAssemblies>
  </metadata>
</package>

When I add it to a project using paket add nuget TempPkg project PaketTest, the reference doesn't show up.
Note, PaketTest is a .net 4.5 console app in my testing.

Verified. My test project works now. Now only have to test it in my actual project.. :)
