Aww, just a little bit too late to easily get into Ubuntu
18.04 LTS
Well.... It still made it, yay! (Even without me explicitly
requesting it)
This means Ubuntu 18.04 will be pretty up-to-date when it comes
to D stuff, only GDC 8 won't be the default (but still
available).
The thing that is facilitating an up-to-date D stack in Debian
and Ubuntu is software in the archive using D. The Tilix
terminal emulator is at the forefront there, followed by my
appstream-generator and the Laniakea archive management suite
and all the bits and pieces those projects depend on (like GtkD
in Tilix' case).
This is very cool! Will DMD become part of Ubuntu, too?
