I just created a dub package. Frankly, the whole thign is backward.

We use a non-dub build flow. But integrating dub packages work 
fine. We just grab dub.selections.json, and run `dub build` for 
every dependency, then grab the library path from `dub describe` 
and add it into our DMD build command. I don't understand why 
people say dub is all-or-nothing.
