           Summary: DMD 2.049 Deb Fails to install on Ubuntu 10.10
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: installer
        AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: mchaten gmail.com



Ubuntu 10.10 was just released, it seems they have a package that conflicts
with dmd 2.049 which is installed by default. This package has the file
/usr/bin/shell which dmd also has.

Log:
sudo dpkg -i dmd_2.049-0_i386.deb

I think the real question is, does shell *need* to be included in the dmd
package? My initial thoughts say no. But nonetheless you tend to run into these
sorts of conflicts when you install 3rd party software.

To give you the quick command, you can divert byobu's file using:

sudo dpkg-divert --local --package byobu --rename --add /usr/bin/shell

That will divert '/usr/bin/shell' to '/usr/bin/shell.distrib' for the byobu
package.

You should be able to install DMD now...

Regards

shell has been removed from the Linux version of dmd for some time now.
