Description
I use a package with several dlls, one of which I need to manually replace with a custom-built version. There are a few spots like this in our app.
I have tried the following:
- paket.references
The.Package
exclude The.Package.Something.dll
- MyApp.csproj
<Reference Include="The.Package.Something">
<HintPath>..\..\lib\The.Package.Something.dll/HintPath>
</Reference>
When I run package install with the above, it not only excludes the package's dll, but it also removes the manual reference from the csproj.
Help!

Research direction
Start with the paket.references and MyApp.csproj examples, then reproduce the behavior with package install. Investigate why excluding The.Package.Something.dll also removes the manual reference; done means the package DLL is excluded while the custom MyApp.csproj reference remains intact.
