Segfault in dso registry - how stable was dmd's shared library support back then? If you are certain that it only started segfaulting after installing gdc-4.6, the only other case to speculate is what was the default gcc version? I can't see having two versions of gcc installed being a problem - as what would have undoubtedly happened if the defaults-gcc package was 4.7 or later, but I question how dmd did it's linking back then. It used to call gcc, but now calls ld directly now though, right? In any case, dmd shared library support, or linking against a unsupported C runtime, had the person asked you to run ldd against the broken binary, probably would have guessed one or the other. In any case neither directly relate to each other - different library names different module paths - so I still have doubts over your claims. The most common reason I'm aware of is having two versions of dmd installed. But if you are unfamiliar with a package system you always seem to find ways to break it that don't make much sense. That's the long answer for "You should not be able to reproduce your problem should you do the same again, and if you do, I'd eat my hat". Iain.

GCC-compatible dmd shell wrapper?
dmd's command-line argument parsing is different from that of gcc/clang. Of course I can use ldc or gdc but as I want to stay with latest improvements I would prefer to use dmd, but I'm having to readapt my habit every time I want to compile a D program. Has anyone written a thin shell wrapper (running Kubuntu Trusty LTS here) for dmd? Thanks! -- Shriramana Sharma, Penguin #395953

Sorry I don't think I filed one. It was quite some time back. It was like after once installing GDC, I couldn't ever install DMD again and have it work. Maybe I posted about that here on the forum, but I don't remember. I'm not sure I would care to try to reproduce that since last time I was only able to reinstall DMD after a complete re-install of my Kubuntu system (a la Windows, yikes – never had to do that for *any* other Linux-based program!). Besides, my post wasn't intended to deride GDC in any way... It's just that for C/C++ I already moved to Clang totally, so not too interested in GCC- based compilers. I realize you are putting a lot of effort into GDC, but well it's just that I'm not looking into it. Sorry again... -- Shriramana Sharma, Penguin #395953
