问题
I've a custom NuGet package (My.Resources) containing an assembly and a dependency on another custom NuGet package (My.Base).
If I install the package, the installation finishes successfully, but the assembly reference is not added. Here is the full output from a Install-Packagecommand:
Attempting to resolve dependency 'My.Base (≥ 1.0.0)'.

While we have several other custom NuGet Packages structured and build the same way, this is the only one with this behavior. The .nuspec inside the .nupkg looks fine and the assembly is in the correct (net45) folder.
回答1:
NuGet is treating your NuGet package as a localized NuGet package that only contains language resources. Assemblies in this sort of NuGet package are not referenced.
If you rename your My.Resources.dll to something like My.Resources2.dll, for example, then NuGet will reference the assembly.
Basically any file that ends with .resources.dll is considered by NuGet to be a resource assembly will not be referenced when the NuGet package is installed.
