how to covert an .xproj file into .csproj file?

Question

I am trying to build repository on linux/mono (autofac project). It contain .xproj file, but I am unable to build it with xbuild. How to convert xproj into .csproj ? (If there is no any tool, then i will recreate csproj from nothing or from older version (if there is one), but i want to know about automated translation)

.xproj is an MSBuild file for dnx projects. It's a partial replacement for the csproj file. The dependencies have been moved out altogether to a project.json file, leaving just the build instructions in the xproj file.
