then just install:

You could try on linux,
apt-cache search dmd
apt-cache search ldc
apt-cache search ldc2

I see... and even that I found my answer elsewhere, this problem 
was already discussed there: 
https://github.com/dlang-snaps/dmd.snap/issues (GCC isn't part of 
the dependencies).


But there was no further progress.

Installing DMD on linux via snap

[matheus via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Hi,

Even my problem is already solved, I'm passing this information 
because I don't know if you are aware.


Yesterday I needed to install DMD on a fresh installed version of 
Linux, so since I was using Xubuntu I decided to use snap.


sudo snap install dmd

Then a warning appeared saying that because some permissions I 
should add --classic, OK I added and the installation proceeded.


So I just ran DMD alone and I got the version and some info, but 
when I tried to compile a simple Hello world to check if 
everything was really fine, I was greeted with this:


cc: No such file or directory
--- errorlevel 255

Looking online I found my answer, this was probably because it 
was missing GCC, then I did:


apt-get install build-essential

And after that it worked, but I wonder... couldn't we get a hint 
about this after or even before installing DMD?


I remember installing other applications and being asked to 
install additional libraries/packages. Couldn't we have the same?


Matheus.

 I think the part LD is tripping up on is -m32 -l -Xlinker
 So it seems you are calling dmd incorrectly or modified dmd.conf
incorrectly as there is no argument after -l so LD thinks you want
to link against lib-Xlinker.

Oops yeah, there was some obsolete in the makefile in my project.
Don't know how it managed to compile on windows, though..

Thanks, though, problem solved.

1. I never bother installing the zip anywhere. If you just unzip it and add 
/path/to/unzipped/dmd2/linux/bin to your path, then you should be fine. I don't 
see any real reason to actual try and install dmd into your system folders 
(though you obviously can if you want to).

2. Assuming that you _do_ move files around, you need to adjust your dmd.conf 
so 
that it points to the appropriate places.

3. If you just moved files around, then you might not _have_ a dmd.conf, and 
you're doubly screwed.

Take a look at the documentation page for dmd on linux:
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/dmd-linux.html

It's slightly out of date, since with the last release, 64-bit support was 
added, and the 32-bit version of libphobos.a is in 
/path/to/unzipped/dmd2/linux/lib32 and the 64-bit version is in 
/path/to/unzipped/dmd2/linux/lib64, but the instructions should be correct 
otherwise.

You need to make sure that dmd is on your path and that a version of dmd.conf 
which points to the place where libphobos2.a is is in one of the places that 
dmd 
looks for dmd.conf (as described on that page). Also, make sure that you're 
using a dmd.conf based on the most recent version, or you could be missing 
necessary linker flags.

Hmm my dmd.conf seems fine, but since the .deb has been updated, I
can just use that. Thanks!

Ref return values are a very new feature in D2.  I suspect its just a
bug that they don't work on inner functions yet.

No, a report is probably needed.  There are lots of bugs with the new
const and ref features in D2.  Many have been reported, but there are
still many more to be discovered.  Returning refs in particular is
very new, so I would expect bugs a plenty with that, though I think
few have been reported so far.  I don't keep up with the bugs
newsgroup these days, though.  Certainly try to search for it in the
bug db before filing a new report, though.  D's bugzilla is here:
