Arch linux has perfect D support Not that there is any competition going on, but Gentoo has support for installing multiple versions of DMD, GDC and LDC2 at once. It has the "dman" command to quickly look up stuff on dlang.org. It can install GtkD on top of all three compilers at once in 32-bit and 64-bit. And in addition it allows you to chose the compiler (i.e. optimization) flags and optional components for D packages. For GtkD the gtksourceview component and a few others are optional. -- Marco
