Derelict doesn't do compile-time linking with libraries, it loads libraries in runtime. rather controversal approach, but it seems to work better for windows. the side effect of it is that: 1. build system can't use pkg-config (or another *-config) utility to link with correct libraries. 2. if your library is old, and Derelict was written against newer with some API added -- badaboom! even if you never used that new API. both problems are solvable, though. if you'll read Derelict documentation (and, maybe, sources) hard enough, you'll find a way to tell Derelict which library to load, and how to live with missing APIs. i can't give you a direct link, though, as i'm not using Derelict, but i'm pretty sure that it shouldn't be hard to find.
