Hi
I am experiencing the exact same "frustration" as DonXML. I think my intention and ensuing questions/misunderstanding are similar. I want to use the nuget package at the solution level, not at any specific project (I simply need msbuild task to customize the build process).
I prefer to use a nuget package because it's easier for anyone would download the code to build the solution if nuget package restore is enabled.
Also, I was expecting to find a .targets file... but there ain't any. Is there any reason? Right now I am declaring the msbuild extension pack tasks I need in every msbuild project (csproj/btproj/...) that needs them. But of course it's a PITA, even more so when you upgrade the package with the latest version from nuget... the path changes...
So what did I do wrong? Misunderstood? How can I get closer to what I want/need?
Thank you for your help
