Thx a lot Jonathan for all the good news. I thought only the rpms were actually containing the binaries and the zip only a source archive for people to build locally. As you might know rpms are not really the Gentoo's philosophy so I wanted to stick to Gentoo's portage. I just gave a try to the zip and you're right, it's working like a breeze : )
I'm a newcomer to D and actually enjoying Andrei's book. Right now it feels to me like the language I'm dreaming of for years : terse, expressive, efficient. Let's see if it's true in the long run. Thanks also for pointing out the bug reporting strategy, I noticed the way my messages appeared in the list was quite different from the other and I was telling to myself I was surely out the normal path.
