d-apt source changed!

2014-11-29 Thread Jordi Sayol via Digitalmars-d-announce 
d-apt  changed the distribution name from "dmd" 
to "d-apt".

Download the last "d-apt.list" to update:
$ sudo wget http://master.dl.sourceforge.net/project/d-apt/files/d-apt.list -O 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/d-apt.list

The new distribution allows to install any deb package version available at 
d-apt.
i.e. "dmd-bin" deb package is available for versions 2.064.2, 2.065.0 and 
2.066.1
To install an old dmd version:
$ sudo apt-get install dmd-bin=2.064.2-0 libphobos2-dev=2.064.2-0

Legacy distribution will be disabled on dmd v2.067.0 release.

This already has been handy, at least for Maor Ben-Dayan who needed to 
downgrade dmd to version 2.065.0 to avoid some regression :-)

d-apt allows to instant update on dmd releases, not on Debian official 
repositories.

Anyway, packaging dmd directly into Debian is not a problem for me, d-apt will 
adapt to the conjuncture, can live together with an official Debian package, 
and if it should disappear, will do.

Push for it!

Is it not better to use 7z format? It has more compression ratios than gz/bz2,

About the d-apt dub deb package, they're built using binaries from 
 and do not compile anything.

How long will it take from a dub release until dub deb package will be

Well, this makes useful have dub in both repositories, Debian/Ubuntu and d-apt. 
All Debian/Ubuntu users can always use dub on their system. If the last release 
is needed for any reason they can add d-apt repository to install it. d-apt 
takes 1-2 day to update dub deb packages after dub release. The deb package is 
not a problem because we use the same package name, and the version shouldn't 
be a problem too, the newer version will be installed regardless its source, 
isn't it?

$ dpkg --compare-versions "0.9.25-0" gt "0.9.24-1ubuntu1" && echo "greater" || 
echo "NOT greater"
