I'm a beginner to C#, working on macOS at the CLI. (I do not have access to IDEs for everyday development; I can use one occasionally for a one-off command, but that's it.)
I'm attempting to add the Krafs.Rimworld.Ref package from NuGet to my project; this provides, amongst other things, a namespace Verse.
This project has to be a .NET Framework 4.7.2 project (this, too, I have no control over); thus, I've installed Mono, since I develop on macOS.
My .csproj (complete) has the following in it:
<PackageReference Include="Krafs.Rimworld.Ref"><Version>1.3.3087</Version></PackageReference>When I navigated to the folder of the solution containing that .csproj and run dotnet restore, it didn't print any useful information; only the following:
❯ HelloCSharp main* dotnet restore Determining projects to restore... All projects are up-to-date for restore.The instructions for compiling that I'm following offer the following advice on how to build:
FrameworkPathOverride="$(dirname $(which mono))/../lib/mono/4.7.2-api/" \ dotnet build Source/HelloCSharpLibrary/HelloCSharpLibrary.csproj /property:Configuration=ReleaseUnfortunately, it's still complaining about the Verse namespace from that ref-only NuGet package missing:

ILSpy shows it contains the required Verse namespace and refs. I just can't figure out why the above dotnet build command can't find those refs, despite the PackageReference in the .csproj.
(All of this works fine when done through the GUI on Windows, because of course it does. The issues I'm having are only on macOS / Mono / at the CLI.)
