hi @JJRdec . I'm curious if letting the plugin manage the dependencies for you works? (not to say that there isn't something to fix here).

Yes, I should have also mentioned this case.

When I let the SDK handle the dependencies, the path to the project stored on WSL can't be read correctly. We can see this below in the output snippet.

Caution: deploying a subset of modules may result in errors if there are 
	 implicit dependencies not expressed in the skaffold.yaml configuration files.

One workaround may to store the files on the Windows system and mount from WSL (i.e. /mnt/c/path/to/project) when say I want to use the Linux terminal. However this is not recommended by Microsoft

any update on that? same question.

Sorry for the delay, we are still investigating this issue and will update when we have a fix
