I understand. The way I see this is as an motivation and opportunity to add the necessary functionality to Phobos. I may be uninformed, but the way I see it basic package management doesn't have to be very demanding on library functionality.
No it doesn't need to have a demanding library functionality. But I have creating these libraries because they contain common code I use in several of my tools and libraries. I think duplicating that code just to avoid having any library dependencies would be quite foolish.
The reason why I use Tango is that it contains functionality that is either missing or not good enough in Phobos. Also, remember that I started this project several years ago.
