Let's make this part of 2.068:

It's preapproved. Who would want to work on it?
Please declare a standard unix location for D 'includes'. Nobody
agrees where in the filesystem D files should be.
I use /usr/include/d2/ for my stuff (I saw it precedented a few
times
before, but it doesn't seem that great), but I want a standard
place
that stuff bundled by linux package managers can agree on.
As for dub, I'd use it if it worked like a package manager; dub
get
libcurl-d libqt-d zlib-d libsdl2-d etc
I have no use for it as a build system, and therefore it's
expression
of dependencies is no use to me. I just want something that
works the
same way as '-dev' packages already work perfectly well in
linux, that
is, they fetch headers and libs, and put them in a standard
location
that all the tooling can find.
run dub fetch --help
