What perhaps you meant to say is that dub doesn't compile application
packages that it downloads from the registry. That might be true. Even
so, if you do "dub install" of one such package, then navigate to the
directory where it was installed, and do "dub build", it should compile
the executable. I haven't tried that myself though.
Yes, it does. But that's where I draw the line with the "dub install"
command actually installs or not. So since it doesn't build the package
I wouldn't considered the package installed, which is what I expect from
a command named "install". But what you already have said "cache" sounds
like a better name for what it currently does.
