which free operating systems have a gtkd package?

[dan via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Debian 10 has a nice gtkd package, stored in libgtkd-3-dev i 
believe (when i installed it, i installed several packages at 
once, basically everything that had 'gtkd' as a substring in the 
package name).


It uses ldmd2 (part of the ldc package).

So it's possible to write and build a gtkd application using only 
debian packages.


I've done this with debian 10, and it works well imvho.

Although i have not tried it, it looks like ubuntu (20.4 and 
presumably later) also has a gtkd package.


I'm going to install a new os on a machine, and i'm trying to 
pick one that has a gtkd package available, so that all the d 
imports are in standard locations and i don't have to mess with 
anything.


So debian 10 and ubuntu 20.4 are candidates, but i'm wondering if 
there are others.  (I tried to find gtkd on linux mint but did 
not see a package for it, but man i could sure be wrong.)


Thanks in advance for any info!
