How do I get this C stuff working with DUB? I tried putting the pragmas in the main source file.

extern(C) char* readline(const(char)* prompt);
extern(C) void add_history(const(char)* prompt);

pragma(lib, "readline");
pragma(lib, "curses");

Linking...
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "_add_history", referenced from:
      _D5mmisc7getLineFAyaZAya in bookkeeping.o
  "_readline", referenced from:

The C stuff works without DUB.

Mind posting your dub configuration file?

Dub does separate compilation and linking.
Add them as "libs": ["readline", "curses"] for dub.json (sdl is a bit similar).
