I’m busy with leveling up my leatherworking, and want to learn all backpack recepies. What I don’t understand is that it says that I can craft “Wranglers bag” when I’m crafting level 50 (which I am), but in order to discover the recepie I need a “Minor Rune of Holding” which I can’t use until I’m crafting level 75…
How do I get this to work?

Make sure you have bought the recipe with Karma from the specific merchant and if that is not what is wrong Level to 75 then make the bag : P

I know I can buy the recepie for karma points, but my question was what to do if I want do discover it. Its says that I can discover it at crafting level 50, but the recepie requires an ingredient that I can’t use until level 75. I would say this is a bug.

Not a bug. Recipes that can be bought for karma cannot be discovered (or otherwise they would not be bought, as they would be a waste of karma).

Erasculio, thank you for your answer, that make sense!
BUT (and this I can’t try out myself as I’m already over crafting level 75), what happens then if I would have bought the recepie at level 50+ something, then I still wouldn’t be able to craft that backpack because in order to use one of the ingredients I need to be level 75…

There are occasional recipes like that where the recipe itself is of a lower level than the ingredients needed to craft it. Chalk it up to oversights by ANet.

Incidentally, I personally believe the Wrangler’s Bag is not worth it. The Minor Rune of Holding costs about 5 silver, but the finished bag only gives 8 slots. You’d be better off buying a cheap 8 slot Bag off the TP for a fraction of that cost. If you already have a Minor Rune of Holding, level up your Leatherworker skill a bit more and craft a 10 slot Bag instead.
