why do you think it sucks ?
dub is a good package manager, but it's not a good build system. For
small projects that just want to list dependencies and have it build,
it's sufficient. Any larger project will have needs that won't be
easily solved by using dub. Which is why I wrote my own.

Hi Atila,
you are talking about cross language builds ?
Other than that limitation, what do you miss ?
Unlike rdmd, dub always tries to compile all sources regardless of
whether they're actually imported. This has been a constant source of
problems for me, including breakage of conditional importing under
various circumstances.
