My team want change packages name:

hunt -> hunt-framework
entity -> hunt-entity
database -> hunt-database
cache -> hunt-cache

How to do it? Must delete package before add it again?

Yes. And change the name in dub.json/dub.sdl.

By the way, perhaps dub could use some namespacing for packages, so all those would just go into "hunt" namespace? Would avoid package name squatting too, which is a thing going on in Rust's cargo right now -> https://crates.io/users/swmon

As an aside, I'm grateful that code.dlang.org doesn't require javascript and XHR calls for something as trivial as showing a list of packages.

That's terrible if it uses XHR for to retrieve the initial data for the page.

Much better if you just use it to retrieve additional data, but the initial data should come with the first GET request.

To avoid breaking dependencies, the best approach is this:

1. clone the repository
2. set the existing package to point to the cloned repository at code.dlang.org
3. change the name and create a new version tag
4. register the original repository again, picking up the new name
