yea. target names symlinked to actual artifacts

that's expected. some targets have multiple classpath entries

3rdparty.spray_routing-5.jar, 3rdparty.spray_routing-4.jar, 3rdparty.spray_routing-7.jar

means it transitively brings in a lot of stuff.

er, it's only a symlink within `dist/$bundle`... after you zip/tar it up it will be an actual jar

so `ls -l dist/$bundle/$entry` should show you what the links point to.

but again: it's expected. the transitive deps of spray will be there if they're not linked elsewhere.

there arent any symlinks in dist/bundle though, there are only concrete jars

Since codegen targets frequently start with a `.`

i was already at the location to where the symlinks pointed

...hm. but it's not even showing the `l` on the prefix of the permissions... that's weird
