@leif I think it would be no easier inside of raco pkg
than as its own command that looked at the package’s info, grabbed the deps, and then installed them. If you implemented, I can imagine putting it in raco pkg

I can’t seem to make feature-profile
work for me. when I pass the program name using raco feature-profile
it complains about passing an argument: zextests: expects no arguments on the command line, given 1 argument: zextests.rkt

Whenever I use racket units with a define/contract
form I get a nonobvious error that says define-unit: cannot export syntax from a unit
.

am I being naive with this?

(When I remove the define/contract
s it works)

@krismicinski I’ve barely used units, much less using them with contracts. I wonder if define/contract
maybe just doesn’t compose well with units, and instead you want something from http://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/Contracts_for_Units.html ?

Yeah, I think that’s right.

@krismicinski define/contract
(and other contract-defining forms such as contract-out
) define things as macros, which units don’t support as exports

Yeah, that makes upon thinking about it, I just didn’t really grok the error message
