Well, the best would be if everybody could get themselves an internet
connection. ;)

This might be an acceptable solution since it is very likely that most
people
using aap for D will have an internet connection. I can try to implement
this
when I get the time, and have it as it as for the moment. Unless you think
inclusion of ddepcheck is the best. The python version would need the
same updates in any case. (The necessary changes are mostly related to
changes/additions to the runtime library as ddepcheck don't consider
these as dependencies (kinda like system headers)). After thinking some
more I'm positive that inclusion of ddepcheck.d is better than implementing
it in Python.

No problem, really.

Yes.
