Cake.Sonar 1.1.32 targets new version of Cake and only net6.0 / net7.0

https://nuget.info/packages/Cake.Sonar/1.1.31

The latest version that supports .NET Framework is 1.1.26

https://nuget.info/packages/Cake.Sonar/1.1.26

Best option would be to if possible to upgrade to latest version of Cake.Tool (3.0) which target .NET 6 & 7, other option would be to in your build.cake pin to older versions of addins and tools that target .NET Framework.

@devlead may you suggest a way to update Cake.Tool?

[catap]

Ah, I see. I'm getting Cake from https://cakebuild.net/download/bootstrapper/packages and 1.3.0 is suggested here :)

[devlead]

I would suggest doing something like
giacomelli/GeneticSharp@master...devlead:GeneticSharp:feature/caketool

Then it's just

1. git clone https://github.com/giacomelli/GeneticSharp.git
2. cd GeneticSharp
3. dotnet tool restore
4. dotnet cake

similar to described here
https://cakebuild.net/docs/getting-started/setting-up-a-new-scripting-project

The old bootstrappers are no longer needed.

Looks the the AppVeyor build already utilize Cake.Tool
