I have a C# library, let say "Utilities" that uses Log4net as dependency, I am using .net framwork 4.6.1, I finished developeing this library and do a nuget pack Utilities.projcs and then push this package.
While I'm try to use this Utilities in another project that which is an asp.net core "2.1" project, I got this exception
**Method not found: 'log4net.ILog log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(System.String)'.**
System.MissingMethodException
      HResult=0x80131513
      Message=Method not found: 'log4net.ILog log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(System.String)'.
      Source=Utilities
      StackTrace:
       at Utilities.Logging.MyLogManager.GetLogger(String loggerKey)
My Utilities nuget spec file

</package>
Any ideas to solve this, I spent the last couple of days to solve it but no luck
NOTE: When I add Reference manually by location in my pc (My library + Log4net) it works fine!!
