Has this issued been settled? We are using the dmd compiler on
CentOS 6. I have a custom plplot.d file that I want to put
somewhere under our shared /usr/local for our programmers to
use.
If I want to follow some sort of precedent then it looks like
my choices are:
/usr/local/include/dmd (similar to dmd rpm)
/usr/local/include
/usr/local/include/d
/usr/local/include/dlang
/usr/local/src
/usr/local/src/d
/usr/local/src/dlang
I personally prefer:
/usr/local/src/d
but would like to go with some sort of convention if one is
starting to gel.
Please don't say use dub and leave it up to each individual
developer. I haven't been able to get dub to work on CentOS 6,
and just getting D in use here is enough of an effort without
introducing package management tools.
I'm interested in this topic, too. Has there been a conclusion as
to distributions should install includes and libraries of
different compilers (and versions), which sonames to use, etc?
