I was looking at easy installation of dmd on ubuntu, and found this:

Should we make it part of the official distribution?

It would be nice to have an official apt repo. I find the way things are packaged there slightly unsatisfactory, inasmuch as it packages various different tools into the dmd-bin package (e.g. both dmd and rdmd) rather than allowing you to install/uninstall them separately.

Alternatively, might be worth setting up a dlang PPA on Launchpad (I think it probably makes things easier setting up packages for multiple different Ubuntu and Debian installs).

I'm not sure Ubuntu allows hosting non-FLOSS in their PPAs.
