That looks like an ancient linker, lld-link added support for
that in version 14, released about four years ago.
...... the latest dmd still has lld-link version 9.0. well
there's your problem lol. the opend release comes with a newer
linker:
https://github.com/opendlang/opend/releases/download/CI/opend-latest-windows-x64.7z
Or with your existing compiler, try compiling your minigui
program with the argument to dmd `-version=minigui_no_manifest`
and it should opt out of that. You'll lose some of the Windows
theming features but they're non-essential.
Thank you for your suggestion, please see my answer to Ricki
Cattermole. I will try this a bit later. And stay with DMD/DUB
for now. I need to take my baby steps.
