No, no, no, no. We had LDC be the default already on Arch
Linux for a while and it was a royal pain. I want to choose to
use LDC when and if I need performance. Otherwise, I want my
projects to compile as fast possible and be able to use all
the shiny new features.
So write a new backend for DMD the licence of which allows DMD
to be in Debian and Fedora.
LDC shouldn't be the default compiler to be included in Debian or
Fedora. Reference compiler and the default D compiler in a
particular distribution are two independent things.
