The native installer installs into /Library/D.
Well that probably explains the problem then.
Possible, but more likely a leftover from installing dmd some
other way.
Seems to be the case in 90% of "I installed dmd using X and it
didn't
work".
Shouldn't an installer make sure the files it installed is the
files being used?
How exactly would it do that? I guess it could parse some output
from dmd to check that it's looking in the right directories,
that would be a nice enhancement.
I wouldn't want it to try and do much to fix the situation if it
didn't work, that would be too intrusive.
The important thing is not to mix and match installers unless
you know
how they work.
DVM will take precedence :)
How does it do that?
DVM seems useful if you really need multiple versions of DMD
installed, but in general I don't like having a special installer
tool for each piece of software, each with its own way of doing
things.
