It seems Dub is dead, and thus so are new Dub builds.
code.dlang.org appears to be having a 500 problem. I think
the website is
recovering as I write, but still no Dub builds so the point
remains: no
code.dlang.org, no Dub builds. :-(
Tip: $ dub --skip-registry=all
Not useful just no, I need new versions. Two reasons: 1. I
didn't have the
latest version locally; and 2. I deleted ~/.dub as a clean up
measure to get
rid of all the crap accrued over the years.
$ git clone https://yyyy/xx/zz
$ dub add-local zz
These are workarounds, to keep you going.
Preferable no, but what else can you do really?
The only thing comes to mind is allow dub itself to retrieve
the projects zip and cache the database locally.
There are currently 2 interesting dub pull requests. First one
allows you to specify git dependencies. Second one allows you to
connect to maven repositories. If e.g. the dub packages also
beeing cloned to a maven repository this would increase the
safety net.
Next step of course would be a pull request to allow url (zip)
dependencies. May someone is so kind to create a pr.
Kind regards
