Feedback: An item with the same key has already been added.

If you add the same item twice to a paket.references file you get:

Locked version resolutions written to \paket.lock
Paket failed with:
        An item with the same key has already been added.

I would suggest that paket should at least tell me which file is invalid :).
The error message itself could also be improved.
This could be a bug as well.

I agree the error message is unfortunate. Could you please come up with a minimal repro?

Yeah its really simple you can just use paket.references:
