Should we make it part of the official distribution?
It would be nice to have an official apt repo. I find the way
things are packaged there slightly unsatisfactory, inasmuch as
it packages various different tools into the dmd-bin package
(e.g. both dmd and rdmd) rather than allowing you to
install/uninstall them separately.
Alternatively, might be worth setting up a dlang PPA on
Launchpad (I think it probably makes things easier setting up
packages for multiple different Ubuntu and Debian installs).
I'm not sure Ubuntu allows hosting non-FLOSS in their PPAs.
