I don't see a mention of the native exception handling on 64-bit 
linux in the changelog.

Yes, sorry for that nobody wrote the changelog entry.

We now have changelog.dd files in each repo, and PRs should only be
merged w/ the corresponding changelog entry. Unfortunately this isn't
always followed.

Thanks for all the work.

Looks like the changelog is missing some stuff. For example: https://
issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15434 and https://issues.dlang.org/
show_bug.cgi?id=15433.

The commit messages are parsed by quite a few tools to find bug fixes.
In order to automatically close bugzilla tickets, get a link from
dlang-bot, and appear on the changelog you should mention `fix Issues
15433` in the relevant commit.

The regex goes like this:

((close|fix|address)e?(s|d)? )?(ticket|bug|tracker item|issue)s?:? *([\d
,\+&#and]+)

It is just another example of why I feel it is necessary to take 
a different direction than dmd.

I see. Good point. You've probably answered this elsewhere, but I don't 
recall: Does that parse the source for comments on its own or does it 
still use dmd's json (or html) output? Unless it does the parsing 100% 
on its own, then it would still suffer from the issue that PR addresses.

Does it on its own. (Well, except the search results page, it 
still uses the json, but I'm fixing that soon and the main body 
pages already do their own thing.)

Brian Schott's libdparse does the bulk of the work, independently 
of dmd. A big reason for this is that doing changes on dmd is a 
pain in the butt, and another one is that dmd is optimized toward 
compiling code (as it should be!) which isn't always ideal for 
doc generation (like version(Windows) docs being left out if you 
happen to be on a Linux box.)

So doing it myself frees me from dmd's design constraints as well 
as dmd's development process.

That's strange because I installed this morning on Ubuntu 14.04 
and didn't get that message. There were no issues. (As an aside, 
I upgraded from 2.065, and nothing was broken.)

Same problem on Ubuntu 15.10 x32.

----
$ lintian -c dmd_2.070.0-0_i386.deb
Can't close(GLOB(0x9a83b5c)) filehandle: '' at
/usr/share/lintian/helpers/coll/objdump-info-helper line 192
command failed with error code 123 at
/usr/share/lintian/collection/objdump-info line 79.
warning: collect info objdump-info about package dmd failed
warning: skipping check of binary package dmd
----

the command exit status is 2


on lintina manpages:

----
EXIT STATUS
       0   No policy violations or major errors detected.  (There may have been
warnings, though.)

       1   Policy violations or major errors detected.

       2   Lintian run-time error. An error message is sent to stderr.
----

So this is not a dmd deb package issue but Ubuntu 15.10 lintian issue. Please
report it as a bug.

You can safely install dmd deb package on your Ubuntu system.

Jordi

NB: tagged commit has 2.069 in VERSION file resulting in built 
compiler reporting wrong version. I have added a workaround in 
packaging script for now but would be nice to fix that in 2.070.1

It's already fixed in master, but no one has touched the stable 
branch yet.  I have a PR to that end, though:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/5382

Note it's not just about what version DMD reports it is, but also 
about what name is given to the phobos shared library files 
(which use VERSION to generate a unique filename).

(On that note: the shared library filenames seem to consistently 
be of the form `libphobos2.so.0.xx.0` where xx derives from the 
compiler minor version number.  Just wondering where the 
preceding and trailing 0's come from; shouldn't the filename 
reflect better both the major and point version numbers?)

Btw, dmd.exe 2.070.0 when run says Copyright 1999-2015, even 
though it's released in 2016.
