#r "nuget: System.Data.Common" doesn't seem to work in .fsx about fsautocomplete HOT 4 OPEN

I can't seem to reproduce this. Tooltips seem to work with no errors.

Mmh, thanks for checking, I'll try to investigate more what could be specific to my environment.

I do see we're not passing along error messages to the LSP Client which I fixed in #1248 so that should give better error messages for why it's not working.

I know restores can get weird (specifically on windows) due to process locking files, so hopefully this exposes those types of errors.

@TheAngryByrd, you know what?

#r "paket: nuget System.Data.Common"
#r "paket: nuget System.Data.SqlClient"
open System.Data.SqlClient
let connectionString =
    let builder = SqlConnectionStringBuilder()
    builder.UserID <- "a"
    builder.Password <- "b"
    builder.DataSource <- @"c"
    builder.InitialCatalog <- "d"
    string builder
let connection = SqlConnection(connectionString)

Works, that is, using the proper package manager (paket), that knows how to not get weird (specifically on windows).

The main issue is that to get it working, you have to be a ninja and copy files around on each ionide/FSAC update, or you have to promote the heretic thing: #1198 & ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp#1959

Heresy (towards the almighty blessed NuGet official client) is prevailing nowadays, why not giving it a shot?
