Which version of Ubuntu does that work for?  I tried it on my Feisty 
Fawn install and it didn't find any such package.

It's new for Gutsy, which is a nice release, by the way.  (The upgrade
utility doesn't work so well, though.)

Ok.  I'm going to try to upgrade to Gutsy then.

I think you have to add the non-free repository before it will find it 
(that repository is unselected by default).  I don't know off the top of 
my head how to do that but look in the menus in Synaptic.

I see an option for third party software as a "gutsy partner". But it's 
not there, either, when I added it.

Not an expert, but did you add the new repository?

-----

For Debian i386, and Ubuntu, there are up-to-date debian pacakges, in
unofficial repository.

   1. Add this line to /etc/apt/source.list	

deb http://d.xk.pl/debian/ unstable contrib

   2. Then you can install packages as usuall in Debian:

apt-get update
apt-get install dmd-nonfree

It will download, decompress and install dmd compiler in system.

On any problem with this method please send mail to me: brayluk at
smp.if.uj.edu.pl

-----

That repository won't show up in any standard configuration dialog;
it'll need to be added manually.  However, I think Ubuntu lets you, via
the Software Sources dialog, add new sources without having to manually
modify source.list.

You're right, the 3rd parties tab in that dialog allows you to add 
sources by pasting the "deb ..." line in a text entry box.

You need to add the line from the wiki4d page to your sources.list. Should
be possible with Synaptic too I suppose. Then run 'apt-get update' or press
some GUI button that does the same. After that dmd-nonfree should be
available.

Good point :) It is so also on Debian. Error on wiki, already corrected.

You are not allowed to put the DMD compiler binary into your downloads. I
don't know if Walter is willing to give you a license though.

Unfortunately not, however I downloaded the deb-src and added -fPIC to the
makefile stuff and now I can (not that I tested whether I can link to the
shared library, just test that it can make them although I would like to
assume that they are use-able).

Last time I tried, the problem was that the x86_64 version didn't build
shared versions of all of it's own libs, and on i386 you can link a non-pic
lib to a pic one, but not on most other arch, (including x86_64).  So, you
couldn't build a shared lib on gdc x86_64 (or at least, you couldn't really
use it).

Oh!! I'll try it again.  My first attempt was with Feisty on a macbook and the
installation (with synaptic) didn't work.  I'll try on Gusty!
