Including Amazon S3 Nuget with Xamarin Android Application Results in FileNotFoundException

Question

When I add the Amazon S3 Nuget package to the xamarin Android application, I get the following error:

Severity    Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Error       Exception while loading assemblies: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load assembly 'System.Net.Http.Primitives, Version=1.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. Perhaps it doesn't exist in the Mono for Android profile?
File name: 'System.Net.Http.Primitives.dll'
   at Xamarin.Android.Tuner.DirectoryAssemblyResolver.Resolve(AssemblyNameReference reference, ReaderParameters parameters)
   at Xamarin.Android.Tasks.ResolveAssemblies.AddAssemblyReferences(ICollection`1 assemblies, AssemblyDefinition assembly, Boolean topLevel)
   at Xamarin.Android.Tasks.ResolveAssemblies.Execute() ContentUpdater  

Any idea how to solve this problem?

Nick.

Update: I just tried the same with the Windows 10 Universal App, and I get this,

Severity    Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Error       Cannot resolve Assembly or Windows Metadata file 'System.Net.Http.Primitives.dll'   WindowsContentUpdater   C:\devoctomy\GitHub\ContentUpdater\WindowsContentUpdater\WindowsContentUpdater.csproj   

Is the S3 library broken or something else?

A little late, but I managed to fix it.

• Delete all AWSSDK nugets
• start by adding Microsoft.Net.Http nuget
• Add AWSSDK.Core, S3, and then Cognito + everything you need
