Why the dependency on Microsoft.Bcl.Compression in a .NET 4.5.1 targeted project? #32

Closed martyt closed 8 years ago

martyt commented 8 years ago

My project currently targets .NET 4.5.1, which as I understand it, already includes the GZipStream / DeflateStream classes that are brought in by the Microsoft.Bcl.Compression package.

Adding any of the ".Bcl.*" packages causes no end of grief, as I then get a warning in every assembly that reference my project complaining that it, too, must install Microsoft.Bcl.Build

Am I missing something or should your package not require Microsoft.Bcl.Compression if the project it's being installed to already targets .Net 4.5 or later?

The latest version (2.0.0 and upwards) should not require the BCL libs at all, which version do you have installed?

I installed v2.0.3 into a project targeting .NET 4.5.1
