But why do I need to do that if it's sitting right next to phobos and
DMD is already searching that directory for libraries?
That because of the way the dmd and the linker interpret the arguments.
-L tell dmd to pass the command that follows to the linker.
To tell the linker to link with a library in a known location you would
use the -l flag.
For the value passed to -l the linker will prefix `lib` and postfix
`.so` `.a`.
So the following should work properly:
`dmd -de -w -L-lgtkd-3 nufsaid'
