So, we get this dub.json :{ "name": "example", "configurations": [ { "name": "example", "targetType": "library" }, { "name": "unittest", "targetType": "library", "importPaths": ["source", "tests"], "sourcePaths": ["source", "tests"], "dependencies": { "silly": "~>1.0.2", "dshould": "~>1.4.3" } } ] } [...]
Assumption: dshould has 2 configurations. In first configuration, unit-threaded is marked as optional in second it isn't. Dub therefore downloads it per rule (all configurations are considered, also the not used).
The author could mark it in all configurations as optional or, use sub packages, which is another way to have optional dependencies.
Kind regards Andre
