# Objective
- `bevy_gizmos` cannot work if both `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_pbr` are
disabled.
- It silently fails to render, making it difficult to debug.
- Fixes#10984
## Solution
- Log an error message when `GizmoPlugin` is registered.
## Alternatives
I chose to log an error message, since it seemed the least intrusive of
potential solutions. Some alternatives include:
- Choosing one dependency as the default, neglecting the other. (#11035)
- Raising a compile error when neither dependency is enabled. ([See my
original
comment](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/10984#issuecomment-1873420426))
- Raising a compile warning using a macro hack. ([Pre-RFC - Add
compile_warning!
macro](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/pre-rfc-add-compile-warning-macro/9370/7?u=bd103))
- Logging a warning instead of an error.
- _This might be the better option. Let me know if I should change it._

## Changelog
- `bevy_gizmos` will now log an error if neither `bevy_pbr` nor
`bevy_sprite` are enabled.
