I just started to dip my toes into vibe.d and I tried to stay
on the beaten track. I downloaded vibe zip, and did the "First
Steps" as recommended:

$ cd /path/to/my/projects
$ dub init <project-name> vibe.d

But when I try compiling the default code in app.d which is created after the "dub init" above, I get:

N:\VibeMyProject\MyProject\source>dmd app.d -IN:\vibe.d\source
-IN:\Deimos\openssl-master
N:\Deimos\openssl-master\deimos\openssl\bn.d(907): Error:
matching '}' expected, not EOF
N:\vibe.d\source\vibe\templ\parsertools.d(12): Error: module
metastrings is in file 'std\metastrings.d' which cannot be read
import path[0] = N:\vibe.d\source
import path[1] = N:\Deimos\openssl-master
import path[2] = N:\D\dmd2\windows\bin....\src\phobos
import path[3] = N:\D\dmd2\windows\bin....\src\druntime\import

Isn't the first a syntax error and the second one I read that
metastrings was Deprecated and it would be removed in March
2014.

Should I be using DUB to download vibe?

I've read the documentation on DUB and vibe, but I'm still a little hazy on both.

Is there a walk-through?

Thanks.
