Summary: brew install dmd has a bug in its creation of dmd.conf
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86
OS: Mac OS X
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P1

brew install dmd has a bug in its creation of dmd.conf:
$homebrew_D/etc/dmd.conf should be a symlink (eg to
../Cellar/dmd/2.072.1/etc/dmd.conf)
just like
$homebrew_D/bin/dmd is a symlink to ../Cellar/dmd/2.072.1/bin/dmd
Without it, it causes conflict issues when using several versions of dmd:
brew install dmd (subsequent versions, eg 2.071.1 2.072.1)
$homebrew_D/Cellar/dmd/2.071.1/bin/dmd --help|grep Config
Config file: $homebrew_D/etc/dmd.conf
$homebrew_D/Cellar/dmd/2.072.1/bin/dmd --help|grep Config
Config file: $homebrew_D/etc/dmd.conf
=> they use the same dmd.conf, which is incorrect.
