No, it is not an rdmd bug.
"etc" is a standard D package name reserved for Phobos, the
standard library. It is the same for "std" and "core".
Please, point us directly to a documentation where it says
that this words reserved.
http://dlang.org/phobos/ ?
(you don't expect to casually use package names "std" and
"core" either, do you?)
Actually, I never got to use this names for first package name.
(I only used `<something>.etc` and `<something>.core`.) So, I
didn't thought about this.
But, if to think about it know:
`std` - no.
`core` - yes.
`etc` - yes.
It isn't documented. So, why should I think that this is reserved
package names? Actually, I myself never thought that there's
exist such thing as "reserved package name".
Isn't it better to document such things? Less questions will
arouse. Less users will stumble on strange errors.
