This is a correct behaviour. If you want to list all files in 
d-apt use this link:
https://code.google.com/p/d-apt/downloads/list

Otherwise, if you want to include d-apt as an apt server, just 
add the line (without additional dots):

deb http://d-apt.googlecode.com/files /

at the file:

/etc/apt/sources.list

This is not correct. As phobos is the standard d library, it's 
included into the dmd package, so there are both phobos and tango 
libraries available on d-apt server.
If you install tango package, you'll able to compile this code:

file: test.d
---
import tango.io.Stdout;
import std.stdio;

void main()
{
	Stdout("hello with tango!").newline;
	writeln("hello with phobos!");
}
---
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs tango` -run test.d


About packages on d-apt. I understand that dmd package can be 
split into two or more packages (compiler, druntime, phobos 
library with headers, help, etc.).
This is the initial apt version, and there is a long way to walk.
