I intent to use D to make a small 2D game.
I have downloaded eclipse, DDT plugin and dub. I also set the path to dub in eclipse.

So I made a new project, tested a writeln and it worked. The next step was to add some dependencies for derelict. I need SFML for now (and DerelictUtils of course).

So this is what I've done:

{
	"name" : "DTest",
	"description" : "A minimal D bundle.",
	"dependencies" : {
		
		"derelict-util": ">=1.0.3",
		"derelict-sfml2": "~2.1"
	},
	
	"versions-x86_64": ["UseAmd64Impl"],
	"lflags": ["-I/home/minas/.dub/packages/derelict-sfml2-2.1/lib", "-LDerelictSFML2"]
}


The way I specified the library seems very ugly to me. Essentially it's a full path... How can I tell dub to use it by locating it automatically from its local repository?

Oh and another thing: The program compiles right now but I can't execute it because for some reason:
Failed to create a child process.
Cannot run program "/home/minas/Projects/eclipse_workspace/DTest/dtest" (in directory "/home/minas/Projects/eclipse_workspace/DTest"): error=13, Permission denied

Running from terminal yields the same error.

You don't. That's what dub does by default.

That's a file permissions problem. Make sure that you have write access to that directory.
