i, for myself, see a great problem with Dub: it's not a universal build
tool. some of my internal D projects, for example, builds C libraries
from source (and some of that libraries using yacc, for example, and
others some other generator tools, which are build and execed in the
process of building the library), then runs some kind of external
generators (can't do this with D CTFE, 'cause compiler eats all of my
RAM and then fails), then builds D sources, then links it all together.

it's complicated as it is, and Dub is not well-suited for such use
cases.
