Yeah, that's actually what I like about it: it's completely 
seperate from any build system and programming language

Over here, you can see how people don't like `dub`, and would 
like to use something else while still managing to provide 
packages to the community as a whole

I'd reckon that people build their code using whatever software 
they prefer, but publish their code on `conda` for easy usage, 
allowing the flexibility of their preferred tool, while 
maintaining the easy accessibility of their package.
