So, I can get a shared library compiled normally (Assuming it's already compiled first with -shared -fPIC etc) with: dmd -of'Breaker Engine.so' 'Breaker Engine.o' -shared -defaultlib=libphobos2.so -L-rpath=$PWD

However, for some reason dub is having issues whenever I try to compile it as a shared library with dynamicLibrary.

Any suggestions? I'd like to get this fixed because otherwise there's gonna be portability problems..

Could you provide some error message / output, and your package.json ?

Add this to your package.json:
"libs": [ "phobos2" ]

I also added:
"lflags": [ "-rpath=/home/xxxx/bin/dmd-2.064.2/linux/lib64/" ],

for myself, as my dmd is in ~/bin/, but you shouldn't need it if you installed the package.

""libs": [ "phobos2" ]" worked perfectly, thank you so much. :)
