Dub version 1.8. is very old and the error you mentioned is fixed in the meantime. Your issue is fixed by update to a recent compiler (which includes a recent dub). Kind regards Andre Sadly, it is not only my issue, it is reproduced for everyone wanting to make a multi-stage build with Dockerfile.multi from tutorial. I have made the PR to fix it (install fresh dmd and dub), but tutorial should be fixed too.

Just for kicks. If I ever do get around to it, my ignorance of all things Docker will not be the time sink it could have been thanks to this latest post on the D Blog by Kai Nacke. The Blog https://dlang.org/blog/2019/03/14/containerize-your-d-server-application/ Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/b0zqck/containerize_your_d_server_application/ Seems that multithe tutorial no longer works. ``` The dependency resolution process is taking too long.

Please file a bug report at https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues and mention the package recipe that reproduces this error. ``` Seems for me as issue of very old dub version. Running `dub --version` in the container shows ``` DUB version 1.8.0-3, built on May 7 2018 ``` Image tag is ubuntu:cosmic, it is relatively fresh distro (18.10). It is very sad, that dub from official ubuntu repo can not compile any vibe.d app because of this issue. Even in desktop installation. Anyway, the tutoial should be fixed, for example with usage of official Dlang docker image dlang2/dmd-ubuntu. But changing dlang2/dmd-ubuntu does not simply works either, because it is based on ubuntu artful 17.10, and 17.10 does not have libssl1.1. I tried to switch to libssl1.0, but then I got linker errors. Maybe for this beginner tutorial makes sense disabling SSL and swithing to dlang2/dmd-ubuntu base image? P.S. My first post here. :)

Then all the dirty work gets handled by a C++ compiler. Wouldn't that be an order of a magnitude easier to implement?

Also SWIG (for d too) does something like this.

The goal is to help focus energy on getting more effort directed at the issues that fall by the wayside. The blog post has all the details, so I encourage everyone who cares about improving D and its ecosystem to give it a read. The blog: https://dlang.org/blog/2019/04/15/manpower-in-the-d-ecosystem-or-resources-resources-resources/ Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/d_language/comments/bde7zq/manpower_in_the_d_ecosystem_or_resources/ Great write-up. IMO, the direction is right and looks promising. Of course, besides me only talking, I'm aware that something material can be done. And hopefully, I won't miss a chance ;) Cheers, Piotrek
