I'm running Debian GNU/Linux (testing). Here's the installation process for the 3 major D compilers.
$ apt install gdc $ gdc my_first_program.d GDC is too old for you? Fine, let's use ldc: $ apt install ldc $ ldc2 my_first_program.d Or if you want the bleeding edge version of D: (download dmd .deb package from dlang.org) $ dpkg -i dmd_*******.deb $ rdmd my_first_program.d Debian maintainers, one word: Thank you!
