i never talked about binaries. what i'm talking about is that dub is not a package manager at all. how can i get a list of available packages? how can i search by package name or in package descriptions? using web site is not an option, that functionality should be built-in. how can i get compilation flags and dependencies from dub without parsing json, so i can use dub in my build system? (luckily, that seems to be fixed in recent versions, at least i've seen PRs for that) so i prefer to think about dub and it's "packages" as "dependency downloader", but package manager.
