How do I install a package that depends on another package that "target projects"?

Question

I am having trouble setting up yeoman. I keep getting this error when trying to install certain packages (yeoman, compass). While, other packages install fine (git, python).

External packages cannot depend on packages that target projects

I'm not sure where the failure is, but nuget has a long standing issue that chocolatey also gets with using a content folder :(.

If any package that is depended on has a content folder, it requires the upstream package to also have a content folder. This is undesirable, so the fix is to ask the package maintainer to remove the content folder.
