Upgrading ASP.NET 5 from beta-4 to beta-5

Upgraded ASP.NET5 from beta-4 to beta-5 following the instructions on Microsoft's site: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdev/archive/2015/06/30/asp-net-5-beta5-now-available.aspx

Got ton's of compile errors (1900+) like I was missing core .NET stuff (System.Object not defined, etc). I followed the solution posted at this other similar question: Error Upgrading from ASP.NET 5 Beta 4 to Beta 5 But this did not resolve the issue. I now get errors that the following runtime could not be found: dnx-clr-win-x86.1.0.0-beta5

If I run the command "dnvm list" I get the following output:

Active Version           Runtime Architecture
------ -------           ------- ------------
       1.0.0-beta4       clr     x64
       1.0.0-beta4       clr     x86
       1.0.0-beta4       coreclr x64
       1.0.0-beta4       coreclr x86
  *    1.0.0-beta6-12254 clr     x86
       1.0.0-beta6-12254 coreclr x86

So dnvm upgrade skipped over beta5 and went straight to beta6, but it appears some things are still looking for beta5. Is there a way to force dvnm to install beta5?

I've attempted to run the command:

 dnvm install 1.0.0-beta5

Which results in the error:

'dnx-clr-win-x86.1.0.0-beta6-12254' is already installed.

Notice it says beta6 for the error! Perhaps it's being used as an alias for beta5 or it's just not possible to install earlier versions?

dnvm installs from the release feed by default. We've branched for beta6 and beta5 is not longer on that feed.

To solve the issue, set the DNX_FEED variable:

set DNX_FEED=https://nuget.org/api/v2
dnvm install 1.0.0-beta5

PS: I've opened a bug to track this. It would be nice to have a regular argument to specify the feed.
