tohu, thanks for reporting this. I do not have access to Windows 
right now, but will definitely look at this tomorrow. It could be 
that dub packaged the code in wrong way. Workaround is ofc to 
clone the repo locally on your Windows box, and try to build it. 
This is exactly what I am going to do tomorrow.

If it happens to be a genuine issue in the ddn-data-xml code, I 
will try to fix it. The right place to report ddn-data-xml 
issue(s) is https://codeberg.org/ddn/ddn-data-xml/issues

ZIP looks good btw:
