Problem adding minuit as dependency in Linux

[poeticAndroid]

it seems that simply adding minuit to dub.json causes trouble in Linux

Performing "debug" build using /usr/bin/dmd for x86_64.
minuit 0.1.1: target for configuration "linux-build" is up to date.
hello_minuit ~master: building configuration "application"...
Linking...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lasound
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Error: linker exited with status 1
/usr/bin/dmd failed with exit code 1.

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS and DMD64 D Compiler v2.087.0

Sorry, I didn't get notified of this post.
It seems you're missing the alsa lib which is required.
Try installing libasound2-dev and compile again.

Do you still have the issue ?

I haven't tested it yet with alsa installed..

However, my confusion was more about the fact that this error occurred even without importing minuit anywhere in the code.. maybe that's just due to my lack of understanding how D libraries work..

But because of this, I had to manually remove minuit from dub.json when compiling my app on Linux and Mac.. In the code I could just wrap the minuit dependent code in version clauses..
