The exception tells you that in order to write your assembly, Cecil needs
to read OtherDLL.
This happens when there's a metadata element that requires to read the
definition of a type in another assembly.
The solution is to pass an assembly resolver when reading the assembly that
knows how to resolve OtherDLL.
It could look like this:
var resolver = new DefaultAssemblyResolver();
resolver.AddSearchDirectory("C:\path\to\directory\which\contains\other\");
var assembly = AssemblyDefinitiob.ReadAssembly(fileName, new
ReaderParameters { AssemblyResolver = resolver });
