Error during parsing of paket.lock

When expanding the Paket Dependencies menu item in the Solution explorer, no dependencies are listed.
When trying to use any operation on the Paket Dependencies menu item, such as Restore an error is reported in the Paket Console:
Error during parsing of 'xxx/paket.lock'.
Could not restore paket dependencies.
After adding / removing things from the paket.lock file to see what would get it to parse, it seems related to a framework restriction of netcoreapp2.1. I think the version of the Paket library included in the addon is unable to parse that.
What version of Paket are you using to generate the lock file?
I suspect the problem is that the addin includes its own copy of Paket and since Paket itself changes rapidly the addin gets out of date. I was thinking about removing this dependency as much as possible and just shelling out to paket, using whatever paket version is being used locally.
This lock file was created with Paket 5.176.4.
It looks like parsing netcoreapp2.1 was added in 5.147.0:
https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/releases/tag/5.147.0
Updated to Paket 5.176.4 and that seems to handle netcoreapp2.1 in the paket.dependencies as a framework.
This fix is in version 0.5 of the Paket addin which should be available from the main MonoDevelop addin server. Also available to download
