I installed a couple of NuGet packages to test them out
http://nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.HelpPage
http://nuget.org/packages/SDammann.WebApi.Versioning
Now everytime I run any of my asp.net razor projects I get a 500 - Internal server error. I uninstalled the packages, but the problem persists. Apparently they blew up some references. Please help since I cannot get any work done until this is fixed. I even reinstalled VS2010 to no avail. From the look of it some mismatch between razor versions in the GAC has occured. It's not really clear to me what the error means and how to fix it, you wouldn't think you would have to deal with this kind of things when you use NuGet, shouldn't it set things back the way it was when you uninstall?
