I'm suspecting that you don't own that directory. You can see
the owner by running this:
ls -l -a ~/ | grep dub
The third column is the owner. You change the owner like this
from the Terminal:
sudo chown -R joelcnz ~/.dub
Assuming "joelcnz" is your user account name.
If you do are the owner then it looks like the directory isn't
writable. You can check that with the same "ls" command. The
permissions are in the first column. It should look like this:
drwxr-xr-x
Meaning writable, readable and executable by the owner.
Readable and executable by the group, readable and executable
by everyone else. To make it have those exact permissions, run
the following:
chmod 755 ~/.dub
Things just silently not work.
