Well, the post was a bit incoherent because getting all this
stuff working is. I was searching for ldc and ran across some
web site that had only the sources(same for gdc).
The point of it all is that things seem to be a bit
discombobulated and make D look bad. Professions won't use D
if it can't be used professionally(not that I'm a pro, just
saying).
Why isn't there a proper binaries for ldc and gdc that work out
of the box like dmd? There used to be. What's up with all this
arm-linux-genuabi crap? When one opens up the archive all the
files are named that way too. There is no explanation of what
that means. Did some kid write this stuff in his basement or is
this suppose to be serious? Do people think about the end user
when creating this stuff or is it just a eureka moment
"Lightbulb: Lets create some spaghetti!".
I would have thought things would have gotten easier and more
logical but that doesn't seem to be the case.
The official download page is http://dlang.org/download.html (ldc
download can be found from there) - please let us know if you
find other outdated pages.
You can even use the official install script for ldc and gdc too
:)
