DSSS, the D Shared Software System, is a tool to ease the building, 
installation, configuration and acquisition of D software.

Some of you who have given me bug reports and feature requests recently 
may notice they're not all here in 0.65. Well, I have an itchy trigger 
finger.

The changelog for 0.65:
         - Now exits with the proper exit code when a subcommand fails (see
           ticket #58).
         - Argument parsing now fails properly with invalid arguments 
before the
           command.
         - Now always fflush's before doing a system() call, to improve 
output.
         - Rearranged build order to be a bit more explicit.
         - Added the new technical README.
         - Improved the process of making universal binaries for OS X.
         - Rebuild: Added -notfound, which lists imports which 
correspond with
           non-existing files.
         - DSSS should now only install dependencies which are not 
handled (even
           if they're handled externally to DSSS).
         - Rebuild: Moved document generation back into rebuild.
         - Rebuild: Support for pragma(nolink) (see ticket #57).
         - Future versions should be upgradeable with `dsss net install 
dsss`
           (see ticket #26).
         - Rebuild: Made rebuild choose a D compiler at runtime when 
possible.
         - The 'sss' package now installs as a sourcelibrary, so it 
should be
           compilable during X-compilation, etc.
         - Rebuild: Fixed import timestamping.

As per usual, more information and downloads are available at:

PS: I know that DSSS is becoming successful because I'm getting plenty 
of feature requests for features it already has. Everybody knows that 
the best measure of success of a F/OSS project is clueless users.
