Description
Description
In some NuGet package names, we included the version we are currently building to be sure that the project only takes its version dependencies.
nuget net-project-v1-test
In the case we need the create a patch inside this version, the name will contain a period
nuget net-project-v1.1-test
When the main project is doing a paket update to get every package dependencies he needs, Paket update makes an error on the package with "." even if the package is inside the local source.
The error
Please check the feed definition in your paket.dependencies file.

Repro steps
- Having a project with dependencies that contain a "." inside the package name
- Build the package with a "." inside the name and copy this package inside a local directory
- Be sure that the paket.dependencies file have the local directory as a source
- Before building the project that is inside another directory, make a paket update so paket will get the dependencies
- Same error should be happening
Expected behavior
paket should be able to get package with a "." inside the name
Known workarounds
Remove the "." inside the package name

Research direction
Start with Paket.NuGetLocal.getDetailsFromLocalNuGetPackage, identified in the error trace, and reproduce the failure using a local package whose name contains a period. Done means paket update retrieves the package dependencies successfully without requiring the period to be removed.
