  Description     : Package and build management system for D

DUB is a build tool for D projects with support for automatically
retrieving dependencies and integrating them in the build process. The
design emphasis is on maximum simplicity for simple projects, while
providing the opportunity to customize things when needed.

An important property of the build description for each project is
that it only contains the minimally needed information to describe how
a package is built, skipping things such as build type (debug,
release, unittest etc.). What is specified can be done so in a mostly
platform and compiler agnostic way using abstract fields.

See also https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dub for details.

I am using dub for a project and having it in Debian would be a great thing.
Ideally, the package should sooner or later be team-maintained together with
other D packages (as part of the D team in Debian?).
Until that is decided, I plan to put it into collab-maint.
