Description

Description

In order to prevent issues like #4062 there should be some sort of simple smoke check of the IL-merged paket.exe in the CI pipleine.

It would seemingly only need to happen on windows (mono never reproduced the failures seen in that issue for me), and it would be a failing step for the windows build if errors occur.

Research direction

Start by locating the Windows CI build configuration and the step that produces or runs the IL-merged paket.exe. Add a smoke check using a simple dependencies file, with the Windows job failing when the executable errors; done means this check runs reliably in CI.
