dub fights D compilers. This is why it forces me to write 600
lines of ugly configuration file for something that just works in
dmd.
That said, the directory layout here is indeed not optimal, and
the makefile build takes *forever* which is disturbing. This
program should probably build in < 3 seconds, not the... minute
or two it took running make here.
Proof:
$ time dmd -i wildcad.d -I../../widgets/lib/source/
-I../../widgets/include -version=X11 -L-lX11 -L-lcups
-L-lfontconfig -L-lcairo

Fully operational executable created in under 3 seconds.
