I have a project here which fails on link on ubuntu 12.10.
It give undefined reference errors for functions in libdl and libutil.
For some reason, ld won't cooperate unless you pass -ldl -lutil at the
end of the command string. Holy Ubuntu!
I can't seem to get dmd to do this though. Any suggestions?
I am using the beta, but apparently this is a thing with ubuntu.
It is not uncommon to request the libraries needed to build your app.
Dmd passes a couple/one for phobos dependencies, but other libraries
need to be reqested.
I am doing that.
I think the problem is libpython2.7.a requires libdl and libutil, and ld
requires -ldl and -lutil be positioned after libpython2.7.a, but dmd
very stubbornly arranges them before libpython2.7.a in the call to gcc.
