It does not, unfortunately. I just tried building the package using
the latest Dub version, and the actual blocking issue, which is
https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues/2577, still exists.
We need to resolve that or find a workaround in order to update dub.

Cheers,
Matthias

Bug#1055293: dub: Please upgrade to a new version

2023-11-03 Thread Nilesh Patra
Package: dub
Version: 1.27.0-4
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: m...@debian.org

Dear Maintainer,

dub seems to be at a really old version and it is just "limping" to stay
in testing at the moment and the version there was released 3 years
back, this is behind a bunch of new releases.

I noticed there is a new version committed to salsa but it does not
build and this seems unfixed upstream as well. I however did find a
(unmerged) PR that fixes it:

https://github.com/dlang/dub/pull/2623

IMHO dub should be updated to latest version once those rough edges are
sorted out.

Thanks,
Nilesh
