Due to a blocking, but short-lived, problem with Debian Unstable, I upgraded my Fedora dual boot to Fedora 19. I note that whilst GCC is 4.8.1, and Go is packaged, D is not packaged. We know GCC 4.8.1 has GCD, it is packaged and released for Debian, it is not packaged and released in Fedora 19 as far as I can tell. --=20 Russel. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.winder ekiga.n= et 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: russel winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder

As far as I remember it is still "work-in-progress". May be own initiative of Debian maintainer.

The Debian package is courtesy of a Debian developer who is working with Iain to bring GDC to Debian. If you want a Fedora package, you'd have to find somebody who knows how to make an .rpm out of the GDC sources, and how to get it included in the official repo.
