digitalmars.D.announce - DVM - D Version Manager 0.4.1

I just released a new version of DVM, 0.4.1. This is mostly a bug fix 
release. Unfortunately there won't be a 64it version for Linux. This is 
due to a bug in the regular expression module in Tango. The Linux binary 
is now built with Debian 6 instead of the old Ubuntu 6, I hope this will 
still work for most other distributions.

DVM also officially has a new home, at github: 
https://github.com/jacob-carlborg/dvm

Changelog:

Version 0.4.1
   New/Changed Features
    * Issue 2: Fetch zips from github for DMD 2.057+

    * Issue 9: dvm list throw an Exception when no compiler is yet installed
    * Issue 11: Fails when version not explicitly specified

On planet-scala they have the habit of adding a one-liner description of 
what the software is about. This helps newcomers to get into the loop.

Right, sorry. Here's the description:

DVM allows you to easily download and install D compilers and manage 
different versions of the compilers.

When you switch D compiler with the use command the compiler will only 
be available in the current shell. This allows you to have one version 
of the compiler in one shell and another version in another shell. For 
example, have a D1 version in one shell and a D2 version in another.

I'm using Debian Wheezy 64 bit, in a nut shell, do you know if it 
can be made to work in this environment?

Thanks

I would assume that if you have ia32-libs installed, it would be fine.
But I don't know.

Does it give you errors?
have you tried setarch i386 dvm?

As 1100110 said, if you install ia32-libs it will work. I compiled it on 
Debian 6 64bit.

That is, you can download the 32bit version of DVM.

OK thanks, I was just checking to make sure before trying it out.
