I have a library that in the web folder I was using the SASS transformer. Since its only for the build of the web site around the library I put sass as a dev dependency. However pub freaks out in this scenario. I was getting pubspec not found errors for projects further down the line. When I removed the transformer everything worked. So is there any way to mark a transformer as not mattering for dependent projects?

We've talked several times about adding dev_transformers, although I'm not sure there's a bug tracking that at the moment.

Yea I'm not seeing one in the bug tracker. You want me to open one?

Until then it might be useful to have an error message about it. It took a bit of time to track down what was going wrong.

Yes, please!

Yeah, filing a bug for that too would be helpful.

Thanks!
