Can't find crate for dev-dependencies while rustc has no problems!

See original GitHub issue

System or Software	Version
Sublime Text	Build 3126
Rust Enhanced	1.2.3

I experience this problem in my crate “prophet” at this position. The crate approx is my only dev-dependency. Maybe this has something to do with the false-positive error?

rustc and cargo do have no problems at all and everything compiles fine even without warnings.

There’s not much that can be done about this for now (other than disable checking of test code as mentioned above). Running “cargo rustc” will not pull in dev-dependencies, and I don’t see a way to force it. “cargo check” doesn’t check test code either (see rust-lang/cargo#3431).

Can this ticket be closed?

I’d prefer to leave it open until checking of tests is fixed. I recently added support for cargo check to validate test code (Rust 1.23, with --profile test). However, I haven’t updated Rust Enhanced to take advantage of this, yet. I’ll try to work on it soon, since I find it annoying when tests don’t get checked.
