dub build fails on freebsd (but can be fixed)

[devosalain]

1. using gcc as compiler, i.e.

export CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc

2.modifying ./serverbase/dub.sdl

dependency "serve-d:lsp" path="../lsp"

3.modifying ./workspace-d/dub.sdl

dependency "serve-d:dcd" path="../dcd"

After this "dub build" builds just fine.

which dub version are you using? this shouldn't be happening on recent dub versions

[devosalain]

dub --version DUB version 1.14.0, built on Jul 3 2022

[WebFreak001]

1.14 is very old and is probably too outdated at this point. The current version is 1.29, does your distro distribute a newer version like that? It might be worth fixing the distro's version instead, as dub changed the recommended way how to refer to submodules, which is being used right now, but not compatible with old dub versions.
