As I understand it, Dub compiles a downloaded dependency into the local
Dub cache. This means you cannot store a debug build and a release
build for multiple architectures and different compilers, at the same
time, and you only get a .a file, no .so file.
Cargo downloads source to the cache but compiles to the project area,
separating debug and release builds. Each project has it's own
compilation of the shared source.
I believe Cargo has this right and Dub has this wrong. So wrong that
SCons, CMake, and Meson have a strong role in the D world. As it
stands, Dub is fine for fetching dependencies and then has no more role
to play in the build of a project. Actually then the Dub command has no
useful role since it may well be better for the build tools to just use
the Dub repository API directly.
Unless I have misunderstood Dub, or someone is fixing it.
There is possibility to place binaries to specified directory using
`targetPath` (see `Build settings` in Dub documentation)
