Download the last "d-apt.list" to update:
$ sudo wget http://master.dl.sourceforge.net/project/d-apt/files/d-apt.list -O
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/d-apt.list

The new distribution allows to install any deb package version available at
d-apt.
i.e. "dmd-bin" deb package is available for versions 2.064.2, 2.065.0 and
2.066.1
To install an old dmd version:
$ sudo apt-get install dmd-bin=2.064.2-0 libphobos2-dev=2.064.2-0

Legacy distribution will be disabled on dmd v2.067.0 release.

That'll probably be handy at some point. Thanks for doing d-apt. I find it very useful.

This already has been handy, at least for Maor Ben-Dayan who needed to downgrade dmd to version 2.065.0 to avoid some regression :-) Thank you all to create this incredible compiler and the related tools. I only wrap them on d-apt.

only wrap them on d-apt. A product is only as good as its channel to market. Having downloadable things is fine but not really a good vehicle =E2=80=93 except for Windows, = and OSX users who don't use MacPorts or Homebrew. Having platform integrated packaging for Debian (and Devuan?), and hence Ubuntu and Mint, and (if it were available) Fedora, and hence RHEL and CentOS, along with packaging for MacPorts, Homebrew, etc., etc. is the way to go. I do wonder though if d-apt is actually a bad idea as the main resource and we should package directly into Debian? --=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

d-apt allows to instant update on dmd releases, not on Debian official repositories. Anyway, packaging dmd directly into Debian is not a problem for me, d-apt will adapt to the conjuncture, can live together with an official Debian package, and if it should disappear, will do. Push for it!

Ho, I was unaware of this. Looks like something I should be using.
