No. static import just defines what symbols are accessible in what contexts.

The (likely) reason you are getting this is because you are importing a module with a selective import:

import std.uni : foo;

And then using:

std.uni.bar();

What the compiler is saying is that the fully qualified names are no longer going to be imported with selective imports.

In order to "fix" this, you do:

import std.uni : foo;
static import std.uni;

Note that another option is:

import std.uni : foo, bar;

and then changing the fully qualified name to just bar.

Or you could use renamed imports.

Thanks for clarifying this. Indeed, I had a mixture of FQN and selective imports. This is due to things like std.uni.foo(); being in parts of older code and

import std.uni : bar;

So I would have bar() and std.uni.foo() in the same module and stuff like that. I've fixed it now, but I will have to revise things and see what's the best import strategy for each case (based on the newly gained insights).
