Installing NodaTime 2.2.x in PCL with Profile44

I am working on a PCL project that is using Profile44 as TargetFrameworkProfile. When I try to install NodaTime 2.2.4 I get the following error message:

Could not install package 'NodaTime 2.2.4'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETPortable,Version=v4.6,Profile=Profile44', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.

Do I have to downgrade to .Net 4.5 or what options do I have?

Noda Time 2.x only supports the Target Framework Monikers netstandard1.3 and net45. There's no direct PCL support, although some environments that traditionally used PCLs now support .NET Standard.

The 1.x series supports PCLs via Profile328, which has a NuGet target of "portable-net4+sl50+win8+wpa81+wp8". For environments that don't yet support .NET Standard, trying the 1.x series is the best option.

Note that I'm expecting Noda Time 3.0 to probably target netstandard2.0, although I'll still keep the older versions up to date with respect to time zone data.
