Thank you. Sorry, the library does not save the requested information.

Static library building
'main.d':
import pack.mod;
void main() {
fn("Hello");
}
'mod.d':
module pack.mod;
void fn(string s) {
import std.stdio;
writeln("Hello");
}
Both files are in the same directory.
So all is well:
dmd main.d mod.d
So all is bad:
dmd mod.d -lib
dmd main.d -L-L. -L-l:mod.a
main.d(1): Error: module mod is in file 'pack/mod.d' which cannot
be read
Please answer why it happens.
