I don't see anything in your config that jumps out at me as a
potential cause of your problem (though, see below). Do you have
the project in a git repository somewhere so I can troubleshoot?

Two things, neither of which (probably) is going to cure your
problem:
- You don't need the derelict-util dependency. All of the
derelict packages are configured to use it. That's how dub works
-- each package defines its own dependencies so you don't have to
worry about them. Besides which, all of the derelict packages are
configured to use derelict-util 2.0.x, not 2.1. Leave it out and
dub will pull in the appropriate version.
- Don't mix the alpha versions of any of the Derelict packages
with any of the non-alpha versions. I realize this isn't
documented anywhere yet, but all of the alpha versions require
derelict-util 3.0 alpha, which is binary incompatible with
earlier versions of derelict-util. You should be using ~>2.0.3
for derelict-fi. When all of the alpha versions are finally
finished, I'll document which versions are compatible.

Don't let things like this turn you off of dub. It's an excellent
tool. I was reluctant to use it at first because such tools had
come and gone in the D community before. But once I did, I never
looked back. I rarely have issues with it and when I do it's
almost always because of user error.
One thing you might try is to delete the dub.selections.json that
was created in your project directory (and the .dub directory for
good measure), update the dependencies as I said above, and try
again.
