[Mono-list] Mono and NuGet

[Abe Gillespie]

I'm not sure why your Mono is having issues with that type (broken
install?) because I can get at least past the initial startup.  Mac OS
10.6 / Mono 2.8

When I do: mono --runtime=v4.0.30319 NuPack.exe
I get: Usage: NuPack.exe <manifest-file>

Now I've never run NuGet so I found this page:
http://nuget.codeplex.com/documentation?title=Package%20Manager%20Console%20Command%20Reference

One of the screen shots shows a packages URL.
So I tried: mono --runtime=v4.0.30319 NuPack.exe
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=199193
And got: The requested feature is not implemented.

Now I'm just shooting in the dark here because I've never used NuGet
and not even sure if the link is a proper manifest file; it's entirely
possible NuGet manifest files are local files that point to package
sources.  But all of this is moot because, according to the same page,
NuGet runs scripts via the PowerShell infrastructure.  PowerShell is
not available[1] for Mono.

[1] There *is* PASH, an open source port of PowerShell, but it's very
incomplete and untouched for a very long time.
