Is this fixed or am I missing something here? I’m running into the same issues. Tried the work-arounds not working around…

I was able to work around. Here are the steps that needs to be added to .travis.yml:

addons:
  apt:
    packages:
    - gettext
    - libcurl4-openssl-dev
    - libicu-dev
    - libssl-dev
    - libunwind8
    - zlib1g
...
install:
  - mkdir dotnet
  - curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dotnet/cli/rel/1.0.0-preview1/scripts/obtain/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --version 1.0.0-preview1-002702 --install-dir ./dotnet
  - export PATH=`pwd`/dotnet:$PATH

@brthor @blackdwarf - Thanks for help!

For the preview1 bits yes install scripts should work, the preview2 bits are working on ubuntu14 and ubuntu16 via apt-get (confirmed today)

Folks could consume those like so: apt-get install dotnet-dev-1.0.0-preview2-003118

Ah I see @hovsepm @TheSalarKhan @blackdwarf here is an alternative workaround

Install the preview2 sdk package apt-get install dotnet-dev-1.0.0-preview2-003118

And then install the preview1 sharedframework package so your app will continue to work apt-get install dotnet-sharedframework-microsoft.netcore.app-1.0.0-rc2-3002702

using apt-get install dotnet-dev-1.0.0-preview2-003118 does not solve the issue for me. Here is the output

The specified framework 'Microsoft.NETCore.App', version '1.0.0-rc2-3002702' was not found.
  - Check application dependencies and target a framework version installed at:
      /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App
  - The following versions are installed:
      1.0.0
  - Alternatively, install the framework version '1.0.0-rc2-3002702'.
