I have a sharpsvn .net library i want to use in ironpython project. Library is shipped as a .ney .dll file. For C# projects i just add this file to project "Reference" section and after that i can use a library:

But for IronPython, the "Reference" section opens very strange window i can't figure out how to add .dll reference to it. Is it any way to reference .net .dll library in IronPython other than GAC?

Add Reference dialog should not be used. Instead you can 

import clr
clr.AddReferenceToFileAndPath(...) ' with path

or configure SearchPath directory and use AddReference

import clr
clr.AddReference("SharpSvn")
