bower error in VS2015 "bower requirejs extra-resolution Unnecessary resolution: requirejs#~2.2.0"

Question

I'm attempting to play around with durandal but am getting this error:

error:

bower requirejs extra-resolution Unnecessary resolution: requirejs#~2.2.0

bower.json

{
  "name": "asp.net",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "underscore": "~1.8.3",
    "bootstrap": "~3.3.6",
    "bootswatch": "3.3.6",
    "jquery": "2.2.3",
    "jquery-validation": "1.15.0",
    "jquery-validation-unobtrusive": "~3.2.6",
    "angular": "1.5.7",
    "angular-route": "~1.5.7",
    "durandal": "~2.1.0",
    "requirejs": "~2.2.0"
  }
}

Not having luck finding out what it means or what I need to do to fix it. RequireJS has made it into my lib folder, so I'm wondering if it's just not truly an error?

Answer 1

Durandal already depends on requirejs, see here

    {
    "name": "Durandal",
    "version": "2.2.0",
    "dependencies": {
      "jquery": "^1.9.1",
      "knockout": "^3.4.0",
      "requirejs": "^2.1.11",
      "requirejs-text": "^2.0.12"
    }
}

So either remove "requirejs": "~2.2.0" from your bower.json or you can add resolutions to your bower.json file and specify the component name & version, see here.
