First off, Derelict-Util/Derelict-GL3 is a biggy here. Its old

lets admit it. Its also a standard for loading shared library

please, not Derelict! it's a great work and all that, but it's
habit to
load ALL functions is nasty. not only it is unnecessary, it's
sometimes
just wrong. i recall the problem with DlangUI, where Derelict
tries to
load FreeImage function which is not in my (old) version of the
library,
and DlangUI is not using that function at all. yet DlangUI
builds
successfully and then failed to run until i commented out that
function.
Atleast in Derelict-GL3 its staged, so even if you don't have
access to OpenGL 4.x it'll still load successfully 1.1.
Ugh I just checked there is no Derelict package for FreeImage, in
fact dlangui doesn't depend upon it.
I'm now confused. Unless of course you are meaning Derelict-FT.
In which case its not staged. And isn't aware of different
versions.
