          Issue ID: 19780
           Summary: `deprecated` is ignored on aliases of templates
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: desisma heidel.beer

`deprecated` is ignored when applied to aliases of templates. Makes it hard to
properly deprecate old symbol names when templates are involved.


 void main()
 {
 	auto var1 = new MyTemplateAlias!()(); // no warning
 	auto var2 = new NoTemplateAlias   (); // warning
 }
 
 deprecated alias MyTemplateAlias = MyTemplate;
 class MyTemplate() {}
 
 deprecated alias NoTemplateAlias = NoTemplate;
 class NoTemplate {}


Probably related to: Issue 10181
