It's a container that only contains exactly what's needed to run the application, no more, no less. That is, it contains no base image. There's a tool called Smith [2] that helps to build these microcontainers. You specify the files you want to have included in the container, then it will use the dynamic linker to figure out all the dependencies of the executables. With LDC it's possible to build a fully statically linked executable, that makes it trivial to build a microcontainer out of.

The dependency graph is likely hitting a pathological case in the resolution algorithm. 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. :)
