please help.

Product: ProGet
Version: 3.0.0

Thanks for the report - it has been filed in our internal issue tracker as issue PG-172. It appears to be only happening with the NuGet v2.8 client and should still work correctly with v2.7 and below.

The workaround is to simply delete the packages manually from the disk storage path.

I get the same error with nuget.exe 2.7,2.6 and 2.5. We hope you can fix it in future version
