c# - How to resolve MVC4 Twitter Bootstrap project fail from simple Nuget installations in VS2012?

Question

I'm having an issue with launching a MVC4 application with the Twitter bootstrap.

In VS 2012, I created a new empty MVC4 application, installed the following packages:

• Install-Package twitter.bootstrap.mvc4
• Install-Package twitter.bootstrap.mvc4.sample

Seems like some navigation route options-related issues, as I am going through these few turorials Link 1 and Link 2.

In reading the note about possible compile issues, I restarted the solution, but errors I'm receiving aren't the ones in the readme and are focused around the NavigationRouteOptions, NavigationRouteFilters, RouteValueDictionary, FilterToken and HasFilterToken:

'System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary' does not contain a definition for 'HasFilterToken' and no extension method 'HasFilterToken' accepting a 
first argument of type 'System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)   
...AdministrationRouteFilter.cs    18  

'System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary' does not contain a definition for 'FilterToken' and no extension method 'FilterToken' accepting a 
first argument of type 'System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)   
..AdministrationRouteFilter.cs 20  

The name 'NavigationRouteFilters' does not exist in the current context 

'NavigationRouteOptions' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I have confirmed that I do have navigationroutes.mvc4 Nuget package installed as well.

Is this only working in VS 2013?

The Nuget packages are dated October 26, 2013.

Assistance appreciated.
