digitalmars.D - How to use dub with a manual ldc installation?

$ PATH=~/bin/ldc2-1.1.0-beta3-linux-x86/bin:$PATH
$ dub test --compiler=ldc2

I get:

What happens here? I've added "-L-L/lib" and "-L-L/usr/lib" to ldc's 
configuration file, no avail.


Thanks,

Nice progress! About the compilation problems that you're observing, it's most likely due to LDC issue https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/1819, which has been fixed since LDC 1.1.0-beta3, though no new version of LDC have been released since the bug was fixed. You can either build LDC master from source, or workaround the problem by presenting LDC as DMD via ldmd2, that is: dub run checkedint:tests --build=release --verbose --compiler=$HOME/bin/ldc2-1.1.0-beta3-linux-x86_64/bin/ldmd2

Looks like you are on a 64 bit system (x86_64) and using a 32 bit ldc. If this is intended it will probably work fine but you'll have to install the 32bit libc and gcc libraries.

BTW, you should try out the install script (from http://dlang.org/download): curl -fsS https://dlang.org/install.sh | bash -s ldc-beta source ~/dlang/ldc-1.1.0-beta3/activate After the first time it's installed it's just ~/dlang/install.sh install dmd-nightly source ~/dlang/dmd-master-2016-11-04/activate dmd --version DMD64 D Compiler v2.073.0-master-7637a2a ~/dlang/install.sh install dmd-2.071.0 source ~/dlang/dmd-2.071.0/activate dmd --version DMD64 D Compiler v2.071.0 The script allows easy management of several D compiler installations and DUB.
