Glad to announce the second beta for LDC 1.15, with these
changes compared to beta1
(https://forum.dlang.org/thread/[email protected]):
* Based on current DMD stable.
* LLVM for prebuilt packages upgraded to v8.0.0 final.
* Fixed beta1 regression: prebuilt Linux x86_64 package is
usable with older linkers again (e.g., on Ubuntu 14.04).
* Fixed beta1 regression: dcompute is usable again.
* Prebuilt packages don't depend on libtinfo and libedit
anymore.

Please help test, and thanks to all contributors!
The lowmem switch tests [1] fail for me because I use ltsmaster
as the bootstrap compiler.
1) I think those tests should not run in this szenario.
2) I know that I need to rebuild ldc with itself to get the
lowmem switch support in the long run but I wonder if that would
not be better integrated into your cmake build via an option.
Otherwise the packagers out there need to do it for themselves.
