If it was, and there were unit tests as part of releases (or

happen.
RDMD is part of the DMD release.
Some linux packagers may not include it, for unknown
misunderstanding. When dmd2 made its way into main Arch Linux
repositories I had a small e-mail conversation with new
maintainer as I had to prove using code from DPL/tools is fine
license-wise - he was reluctant to put rdmd in by default.
