In any case, I haven't been able to reproduce the problem you're seeing.
I tried installing the package multiple times, upgrading the system
libraries, etc., and everything still works for me, so I'm not sure what
else to say. Seems like there must be some specific combination of
libraries, system or otherwise, that makes dmd not work. Without being
able to examine your environment, it's really hard to tell.

Funny, as soon as I said that, I manage to reproduce the same error
messages (though I can't say if it's exactly the problem you're seeing)
by compiling a file that doesn't define main(). In this case, I had a
hello.d with main() renamed to Main():
import std.stdio;
void Main() {
writeln("haha");
}
Running `dmd hello.d` produced a whole bunch of errors almost exactly
the same as what you're seeing. Of course, I'm not sure this is exactly
the problem you have, as your code does have a correctly-spelled main()
(from what I can tell). But this may help find where the problem is.
Yep, those errors are always a sign that a proper main function is
missing. I have no idea why you would get it otherwise, though.
On that note, here's an enhancement request for dmd: if a program is
missing main() for whatever reason, we really should have a more
user-friendly error message than the reams of encrypted Klingon from the
linker that almost nobody understands.
