What does this error mean? (unregistered dependency)

Do you have the source code of the dependency aptos_horse_publisher_signer you declared? Whenever you declare a dependency in move.toml, you need to have the source code available. Checkout this answer on how to get the source code for your dependency.

Ok, is this the repo you have issue now? Let me try publishing it.

[memxor]

Yes

Are you publishing to the randomnet cuz randomness module is only available on randomnet? If you use aptos init to create the publisher account, you can init an account on randomnet like this

aptos init --profile randomnet-1 --network custom --rest-url https://fullnode.random.aptoslabs.com --faucet-url https://faucet.random.aptoslabs.com

When I try to publish to randomnet i got a different error probably due to bug in contract

BUILDING Horse_Race_Aptos
package size 10343 bytes
{
  "Error": "Simulation failed with status: Move abort in 0x1::resource_account: 0x60001"
}

I've done this already aptos init --profile randomnet-1 --network custom --rest-url https://fullnode.random.aptoslabs.com --faucet-url https://faucet.random.aptoslabs.com..

I don't understand what you mean by declare dependency, cause all my files are in source, I'm not getting anything from outside. It's all in the same module.

This error means your module's address doesn't match the account that is publishing the code.

{
  "Error": "Simulation failed with status: Transaction Executed and Committed with Error CONSTRAINT_NOT_SATISFIED\nExecution failed with status: metadata and code bundle mismatch: unregistered dependency: '5ba9fa393e4840013932ecceb243ae2e6c38a558444fe777ebe8e0550c4c4e18::aptos_horses_publisher_signer'"
}

You can simply fix this through a fairly standard flow, where you provide a placeholder name.

[addresses]
publisher = "_" # This is a placeholder, and has to be set at runtime

[dev-addresses]
publisher = "0x5ba9fa393e4840013932ecceb243ae2e6c38a558444fe777ebe8e0550c4c4e18"

Then you can publish it by setting the name e.g.

aptos move publish --named-addresses publisher=default

Or by resource account:

aptos move create-resource-account-and-publish-package --address-name publisher --seed whatever

This particular contract, then fails due to an error with resource account, but this should unblock you here.
