Reproduce the issue with paket.dependencies containing the shown github declaration, then run paket install followed by paket outdated. Trace how paket outdated handles the downloaded paket-files/forki/FsUnit/FsUnit.fs and paket.version files; done means it no longer creates an empty paket.dependencies file there.
