Would be the best indeed. An online installer is not useful in our case as all the installers and packages are automagically built.

Digger's goal is to be able to build D versions from any point in D's history. As it has already conquered the present (building D from git master) and past (building D from any git commit), only one final frontier remained: the future! This is fantastic news. I'm eager to give it a whirl so I cloned and attempted to build but encountered the following issues: huekomundo:Digger andrewedwards$ rdmd --build-only digger ae/sys/signals.d(55): Error: undefined identifier SIG_BLOCK ae/sys/signals.d(65): Error: undefined identifier sigtimedwait ae/sys/signals.d(60): Error: undefined identifier SIG_SETMASK ae/sys/data.d(521): Error: undefined identifier pageSize I'm using DMD v2.065.0 on Mac OSX 10.9 (Mavericks). I've pushed some OS X fixes, please give it another go.

Just tried building it with crosstools-ng on my poor old laptop, and 90 minutes in it gives me /home/ellery/Downloads/pitools/.build/src/gcc-custom/libphobos/libdruntime/core/threadasm.S:387: Error: selected processor does not support ARM mode `vpop {d8-d15}' Any thoughts? My guesses are 1. set Default Instruction Set to thumb (?) or 2. the submodules didn't update on git pull. But I've gotten a working compiler out of this config before, from Mr. Pfau's fork a few months ago, so prolly not 1. I'd test these myself, but I don't have a spare 180 minutes tonight.. gdc-4.8 branch; gcc-4.8.1, should be the linaro source, but not sure That's a strange GCC/binutils issue. The new Fiber ASM implementation needs a FPU which at least provides VFP instructions. Now according to GCC docs GCC only supports these FPUs(*). But if you don't specify one explicitly it still produces this error. (I guess binutils supports more FPUs and assumes an older default). The solution is to set Use specific FPU in crosstool-NG to 'vfp' or any other valid value. (*) http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/ARM-Options.html (-mfpu=name) Every value listed there works, only not specifying one fails

Thanks Christopher E. Miller. You should make your changes into a pull request. Most people using DFL are tracking Rayerd's repo.

Speak about D at Strangeloop Conference Sep 17-19
https://thestrangeloop.com/sessions-page/call-for-presentations Everyone who has submitted a speaking proposal to Dconf, this year or last, approved or not, needs to submit it as well to Strangeloop. Let 'em know that D is a force to be reckoned with. With enough proposals, they may even create a D track! I'll be submitting a proposal, too.
