I just created a new vibe.d project using dub, all fine. Well once I had solved the libevent problem. Then, as the project is to be a GUI client, I added a gtk-d dependency. I tried building the empty project and the binary comes out at 42MB. Not only that there are two copies of it one in . and one in ./.dub/build. I was gobsmacked, this isn't Go, there should be dynamic linking by default. Is this something I have missed?
There ought to be a clean target for dub as well as a build and run target for dub, or have I missed something? Re GtkD, when I run the "Hello World" vibe.d web server with GtkD doing nothing, I get: |> dub Checking dependencies in '/home/users/russel/Repositories/Git/Masters/ArcamClient_D' Target is up to date. Skipping build.

I am not sure this is the right approach. Debian packages GNOME 3 quite well but they do not have this libgtkglext-3.0.so.0 and yet things work. I think mayhap GtkD should have this as an optional dependency rather than a mandatory one. Or am I missing something? -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
