I'm trying to use oneget w/chocolaty and it doesn't seem to be working at all. The package says it's installed, no warning or notification. It installs the package in the choco directory, but doesn't run the install script and therefore the application is not actually installed. Note this is Windows 10 (Powershell 5).
Get-PackageProvider –Name Chocolatey -ForceBootstrap
Set-PackageSource -Name chocolatey -Trusted
Install-package filezilla -Verbose -Force -ProviderName chocolatey
yields

NOTICE: As of 0.9. 8.24, Chocolatey's default install location is C:\ProgramData\Chocolatey. This reduces the attack surface on a local installation of Chocolatey and limits who can make changes to the directory. You can install Chocolatey to Program Files if you feel that is a more appropriate place.
To verify that Chocolatey is installed, we will use the choco command. C:\WINDOWS\system32>choco Chocolatey v0. 10.15 Please run 'choco -? ' or 'choco -?
Chocolatey is a Windows Package Manager, it manages packages. You don't need Chocolatey in order to do web development. Having Chocolatey makes the automated installation and updating of the applications on your machine easier.
The answer - I wouldn't use the OneGet Chocolatey provider until you hear an official announcement that it is up to date and no longer using the early CTP preview that came out in April 2014 (not a typo).
Until then you should continue to use the official choco client.
