Yeah I was just thinking that in some cases use absolute paths could create shorter paths, so this could be a good idea.

Is there any workaround I can use right now other than to run set APPDATA=C:\TEMP before running dub to shorten the paths? I'm now constantly running into this issue because I have enough dependencies now which trigger path length issues.
