I figured out I will need to make a pull request or two before 
Digger can be properly integrated into the system. For now 
created inofficial AUR package : 
https://aur4.archlinux.org/packages/dlang-digger/

Please fix description:
Compiler for D programming language which uses gcc backend (2.065
frontend version)

should be

frontend version)

or remove info about frontend version completely

Btw.: Thank you for your work, it is really nice to have all D 
compilers a D tools in arch linux repository.

Thanks for this work.

The arch packages got me started in D because there was so little 
friction to try it out. I probably wouldn't have bothered 
otherwise because I was a happy pig in C++ mud at the time.

Thank you for maintaining the Arch packages, using D on Arch is 
easy and the packages are always up to date.

Just want to say "Thanks!" for maintaining these packages (LDC 
too).  The DCD service is nice touch.  I'm sure I take this work 
for granted, but without it, I know it would be a much less 
pleasant experience using D.

Is it really a system-wide server? I can see how it might be
technically necessary due to how systemd works and how you
would need to pass a different IP port for every user.
On the other hand, every user can add imports at runtime and
shut the server down. They might even have to, if they want to
switch projects and clean up the import path list.


      - provides default /etc/dcd.conf with stdlib paths for Arch Linux


Should work so long noone gives root a XDG_CONFIG_HOME or
writes to /root/.config/dcd/dcd.conf. Just contemplating if
when running as system wide service it should generally read
from /etc/[dcd/]dcd.conf instead of user directories. Maybe
via a --system option to dcd-server.

I will look into making it user-local service 
(https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd/User), that is 
simply I currently don't know much about and didn't want to delay 
update much longer.

Ideally I think it should merge them all into one path list but 
simply using global config a fallback worked good enough for now.

I switched back to system wide for now. If dcd-server
evolves further and starts reading not only includes but also
the port number from a user local file (or uses per-user named
sockets like some other services), I'll look into it again.
Anyways, I learned a lot about systemd during this exercise,
that I should have learned earlier. The Arch Linux Wiki is a
great source of information. :)
