I have added pkgBASE via add-path. This wasn't a problem at all.

Unfortunately, the public DUB package requires to be linked with 
the libs from pkgBASE/lib. What do I have to add to pkgBASE's 
dub.json?

Side-note: the lib/ should not be moved for portability reasons 
if this is possible

My bad solution:


	"lflags": [
		"-Llib\\"
	],



but this requires the lib folder to be part of pkgAPP, not 
pkgBASE where I would like to have it. Does anyone have an idea?

Replace the lflags directive with this in the pkgBase dub.json:

"libs": [
     "$PACKAGE_DIR/libs/foo"
]
