I think with "property" you mean "virtual package". See

Basically, the dmd package needs a "Provides: d-compiler"
line, then it should be able to satisfy the dependencies of
the dub package.
Thanks. What happen is multiple packages, all of them not
installed, sets "Provides: d-compiler"? Which one is installed?
I think in that case the (alphabetically) first real package is
installed. This is an uncommon case though, usually when virtual
packages are used, a default dependency is provided (so you have
"default | virtual").
