DUB only recently hit 1.0. Now that it has, it is planned to
begin bundling it with DMD.
Oh, and I forgot to add that DUB is not intended generally
intended as a package installer. That said, you've got 'dub fetch
package-name' already, which will pull a package down into the
cache. If it's an executable, you can then do 'dub run
package-name'.
