I would say that the preferred way is to use a build tool then there

tool, I want it to be usable on its own.
And for that I think the pkg-config method is the way to go. Setting
environment vars brings unneeded state into you development session.
Another option would be to just wrap dmd in a e.g. orbdmd command and
handle it there.
Ok.
Btw: have you considered renaming from orb to something that makes sense
to newbies e.g. dpack?

No, I basically just picked a random name. I tried of trying to come up
with good names for tools and libraries.
