On Dub

Dub has a "run" capability, but apparently no "install" one. Also it
appears to leave compilation products inside the ~/.dub directory.

Go puts compiled executables into $GOPATH/bin or $GOBIN and packages in
$GOPATH/pkg which separates nicely downloaded repository clones from
compilation products.

Cargo puts compilation products into the using project tree and not the
~/.cargo tree.

For me, wanting to use ~/.dub, with three different architectures,
having compilation products in that directory is a bad idea. Whilst go
and cargo have different solutions to this, both are better than what
dub currently appears to do. Unless I am missing something…
