The problem isn't just "dub as a buildsystem". The other equally big 
problem here is that "dub as a package manager" pretty much forces "dub 
as a buildsystem" for library authors. Yes, *officially* it doesn't, but 
realistically, yea it does. And I don't see how dub can fix in any sane 
way without a major, fundamental redesign.
