Intermittent NRE when downloading nugets from TeamCity feeds

[andreasohlund]

We get a NRE now and then on ripple restore. This failing nuget is always one of the floats provided by the buildserver it selg.

I looked at the code but I couldn't see any obvious issues. Any pointers on how to debug this?

@andreasohlund Are you able to reproduce that locally?

[jmarnold]

If so, I think I would start by modifying this guy: https://github.com/DarthFubuMVC/ripple/blob/master/src/ripple/Nuget/NugetProblem.cs#L26

You could try shoving the stacktrace into the description that you get more info.

[andreasohlund]

I can't repro locally. I'll add the callstack and see what that gives
