So I removed the executables from /usr/local/bin and rather than adding them
to my path, I sym linked them to the dmd2/linux/bin directory in my home

available system wide. I then moved the dmd.conf file from /etc to the
linux/bin directory where dmd resides.
When I do this I get different messages from dmd, but it still can't make ld
find -lphobos2. The two messages I get, however, are:
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libphobos2.a when searching for
-lphobos2
The other message is also about libphobos2.a, it's just finding it relative
to the gcc library path.
I even extracted all the object files from libphobos2.a and verified that
they were 64 bit ELF format. Is it really that libphobos2.a is messed up, or
is this message a red herring?
There is a libphobos2.a that is 32 bit, and one that is 64 bit. Make sure that
you're using one that is compatible with the -m32 or -m64 settings you're using
with the compiler.
Also, please use dmd.conf, which contains a switch to shut off undesired warning
messages from ld.
I strongly suggest trying the default install, making sure that works, before
modifying it for your own needs.
