binding redirects from the last group always win.

[Karamell]

This is probably related to #1218 .

If i clone paket and then run paket install --redirects (on paket itself) all App.config is rewritten to only contain binding redirects from the last group in the lock file. Easily reproduced.

Am I using packet wrong?

I don't think this is what's going on. The last group from the lockfile is "Test" and I don't see NUnit Bindings.

Try paket install --redirects --hard and it basically removes all entries since the current logic decides there are no conflicts. The FSharp.Core entries are still needed so we discussed with @mrinaldi that we need a force option.

I'm sorry I misunderstood. The missing FSharp.Core is a different problem.

Try and add modify the app.config-file to this:

<dependentAssembly>
 <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-999.999.999.999" newVersion="7.0.0.0" />
    <Paket>True</Paket> <!-- important -->
       <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-999.999.999.999" newVersion="7.0.0.0" />
</dependentAssembly>

you'll see it will be removed.

The next run Paket will first be add the bindings from the Main group, then removed everything in the Build group... and again in the Test group.

the <Paket>True</Paket> concept does not work with groups.

tried to fix this in #1286 - @mrinaldi do you think this is correct?

[forki]

@Karamell I activated this in 2.23.2 could you please check if it works for you?

[Karamell]

it works for me @forki Both my own project and the paket project is ok.

Thanks for fixing it so fast CI/CD FTW!
