Answer: If you want to resolve this issue do not try to inject IFormatProvider through the Constructor as this Interface comes with Asp.Net 5 Implementation. There is no need to request the IFormatProvider from the Dependency Container. However, just define the property as below:

private IFormatProvider _provider;

function myFunc(){
int myInt = Convert.ToInt32(YouString,_provider);
}

As a rule of thumb, always test your code before you deploy to production, understand how you would test different scenerial regarding Globalization and Localization.
