Warning from reltool on unexpected item `build_dependencies`

[ypaq]

I get the following warning from reltool:

 Unexpected item build_dependencies in app file "../rel/../deps/meck/ebin/meck.app".

when meck is a rebar dependency. The list in meck.app is empty maybe it can be removed.

Can you show your reltool.config?

I think meck.app is empty because any module from meck is not used in your release. Depending on config, reltool can remove unused module from release.

It is better exclude meck from release. if you use it only for testing.

Please try and see if the removed build_dependecies fixes the problem. Otherwise you can re-open the issue.

Thanks Adam! Warning is gone.
