On Bebian/Ubuntu/Linux Mint, You have "d-apt" 

If you static links your d program, you don't need any package from it at 
runtime.
But if you dynamic links it, you've runtime libraries for GtkD "libgtkd3-nn" 
and TkD "libtkd-nn" on "d-apt".
"nn" on library name should be replaced with the DMD major version (without 
initial zero). 
i.e. For the last DMD version, "libgtkd3-88" or "libtkd-88".

Sorry, do not run at compile time. Just remove "-run" to properly compile the

Hello Ron,

There is "d-apt"  where there are dmd and gtkd 
deb for Linux Mint.

To add this repository to your Linux Mint just run this two lines from command 
line:

$ sudo wget 
https://netcologne.dl.sourceforge.net/project/d-apt/files/d-apt.list -O 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/d-apt.list

$ sudo apt-get update --allow-insecure-repositories && sudo apt-get -y 
--allow-unauthenticated install --reinstall d-apt-keyring && sudo apt-get update

After that you can install all the packages on "d-apt".


To install dmd compiler, dmd doc, gtkd devel and gtkd doc packages just run the 
next line:

$ sudo apt-get install dmd-compiler dmd-doc libgtkd3-dev libgtkd3-doc


Then you can compile/run a GtkD example contained on gtkd doc archive. To do 
that just run the next line:

$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd-3` -run 
/usr/share/libgtkd3-doc/demos/gtkD/TestWindow/*.d -ofTestWindow


To run the compiled example just type:

$ ./TestWindow


There are more examples at /usr/share/libgtkd3-doc/demos/


Hope this help you.

dmd_2.069.2-0-amd64.deb from http://downloads.dlang.org/ is an all-in-one deb 
package, containing all the tools and libraries for each release.

"d-lang" splits it in few deb packages:

dmd-bin (compiler and other executable files)
dmd-doc (documentation, man pages and examples)
libphobos2-69 (shared library)
libphobos2-dev (static library, symlink to shared library, module sources 
and pkg-config files)

So if you want to install dmd compiler, just type:
$ sudo apt-get install dmd-bin

On  there is the "pkg-config" section:

---
pkg-config:
Every dev package contains "pkg-config" (shared and static) configuration 
files for the specific library.
i.e. link GtkD2 applications against "libgtkd2.so" and "libphobos2.so" 
shared libraries:
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd2` my_gtkd2_app.d
or link GtkD2 applications against "libgtkd2.a" and "libphobos2.a" static 
libraries:
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd2-static` my_gtkd2_app.d

Just replace "gtkd2" by "gtkd3"

$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd3` my_glade_app.d
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd3-static` my_glade_app.d

This works out of the box with the "builderTest.d" example on GtkD demos folder.

If you are in Debian, Ubuntu, Linuxmint, etc, you can use the d-apt repository:

There are deb packages for tkd:

$ sudo apt-get install libtkd-dev libtkd-doc

You can compile the example application included on libtkd-doc deb package to 
test if tkd is properly installed on your system:

For shared linking against libphobos2.so and libtkd.so:
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs tkd` -J/usr/share/libtkd-doc/example/media/ 
/usr/share/libtkd-doc/example/example.d

 Thanks, I also found that I need to include the flag

 export PATH=$PATH:/usr/include/dmd/phobos
 
 but apparently I still need the -I flag. Is there another way to get around 
 this?
 

PATH environment variable is not related at all with phobos2 sources paths.

All Linux packages (Ubuntu too) includes -I/usr/include/dmd/phobos on 
/etc/dmd.conf configuration file.
If you need to explicit pass this argument to dmd compiler, may be due to 
several reasons.

- You've edited your /etc/dmd.conf file.

- You've created a new dmd.conf on your current directory, on you home 
directory or on dmd command directory (/usr/bin/).

Any dmd.conf file on these places, overrides /etc/dmd.conf

Take a look at:
$ cat /etc/dmd.conf

 functionality I need from Derelict. Until dmd on Windows 64 bit is sorted 
 out, including a clear procedure for setting up the linker I have no need or 
 wish to compile for 64 bit. Especially since any d program that compiles on 
 32 bit will compile under 64 bit.
 
 Is there a flag on dmd that forces it to assume it is creating 32 bit object 
 files? Or is this not possible?
 

AFAIK, 32-bit dmd will always compile to 32-bit by default, so -m32 flag is 
not needed even if compiling on 64-bit windows. To compile to 64-bit use -m64.

There's a David Simcha project:

To link against libcurl (-lcurl) you need to install libcurl development files. 
On Ubuntu, install one of these three packages: libcurl4-openssl-dev, 
libcurl4-gnutls-dev or libcurl4-nss-dev.

For libcurl static linking you should link against all libraries that libcurl 
depends on.

 As I can see by google, this is common issue. How can we document the

 why do u link phobos when compiler do this for you?

On static linking, the library order cares. libphobos2 depends on libcurl, 
so libphobos2 should be passed to the linker before than libcurl.

 
 btw in fact i've seen somewhere on site/wiki/forums instructions how to 
 build libcurl for D or something.

You need to install the development curl package:

gtkd shared libraries

[Jordi Sayol]

With dmd v2.061, gtkd can be compiled to shared library and linked to them 
directly with dmd command. Only allow compilation to 64-bit. 32-bit return 
Segmentation Fault.

I've built two deb packages containing gtkd shared libs.:
http://d-packages.googlecode.com/files/libgtkd-1-0_1.7.0%7E2013.01.14-0_amd64.deb
http://d-packages.googlecode.com/files/libgtkd-2-0_2.1.0%7E2012.12.03-0_amd64.deb

They depends on static deb gtkd packages at:
https://code.google.com/p/d-apt/wiki/APT_Repository#APT_repository_for_D

This allow you to compile gtkd1 (gtk+2) and gtkd2 (gtk+3).
Tested with all examples at:
http://dsource.org/projects/gtkd/wiki/CodeExamples

to link against shared libraries:
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd-2` gtkd_app.d

to link against static libraries:
$ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd-2-static` gtkd_app.d


P.S. This is just for testing.

{
ubyte u1 = cast(byte)-1;

In Linux, files and directories have the setuid and setgid special flags

binary file owner or group.

i.e., /usr/bin/passwd (owns root, with setuid) modifies /etc/passwd by any user

 All deb packages at http://dlang.org/download.html includes both 32-bit and 
 64-bit libraries, so, on a debian-based x64 distro, just install the 64-bit 
 deb, and You'll be able to compile to 32-bit just adding -m32 as argument.
 Same situation for debian-based x32 distros, You can compile to 64-bit 
 adding -m64 as argument. Of course, you'll not allowed to run a 64-bit 
 binary on a x32 platform.

 Best regards,
 
 Thanks, but I was probably not very clear when writing the question.
 DMD itself is not a problem (rather than the bug which forces me to only use 
 32-bit), it's all the packages available through the package manager - it 
 only downloads 64-bit libraries.

This is not strictly truth. dmd deb packages installs, among others, 
gcc-multilib, witch make possible to compile to 32-bit in x64 platform and 
vice versa .

 If I want to use a c library, I need to find both the library and all it's 
 dependencies as 32-bit libraries rather than just installing through the 
 package manager.
 It can be a tedious process..
 

If you want to run a 32-bit program on a x64, install ia32-libs and all its 
dependencies, through the package manager.

 dear,
 for set soname with:

 someone know how set soname with dmd ?


 dmd -L-soname=mylib.so.1

 
 Thanks
 i will do so a $(SONAME_FLAG) in my makefile and maybe i will do a pull
 request for gtkd because ldc do not use -L-soname instead of dmd
 
 

Are you able to build dynamic libraries directly with DMD?
How?

 -sharedgenerate shared library
 

I got this:
$ dmd -fPIC -shared foo.d 
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libphobos2.a(minfo.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against 
`.data' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

It compiles to 32-bit but fails for 64-bit, maybe due to compiled libphobos2 
(64-bit) without -fPIC argument?

Another thing.
$ dmd -fPIC -shared foo.d -m32 -offoo.so.0.0.1
generate the incorrect foo.so.0.0.so file name.

but with:
$ dmd -fPIC -shared foo.d -m32 -L-ofoo.so.0.0.1
the correct foo.so.0.0.1 file name is created.

 What? -shared works with 32-bit?
 
 Holy crap, it does! this is awesome!
 
 maybe make a bug report for 64 bit?
 

better wait till libphobos2.a becomes libphobos2.so

 You might have to wait a while for that. AFAIK there are no plans
 currently to make phobos available as a shared library yet.
 
 I personally think that phobos *should* be a shared object at some
 point, but not everyone agrees with me.
 

I think that phobos should be a shared object too, but only when it has some 
sense (by now, every dmd release breaks previous libraries, at least gtkd ones)

 GtkD seems to be the most mature and production ready for D.
 Although indeed, Gtk+ (and then GtkD) suffers from its lack of Native 
 controls.
 
 The best solution would be QtD, but it looks like its abandoned. QtJambi 
 isn't officially supported by Trolltech (Nokia, whatever :D) any more, so 
 switching to Smoke would be the must.
 
 WxD works quite good, you need to keep in mind that it crashes with DMD64, 
 GDC and LDC works fine.
 
 DWT could be nice if it gets 64bitz support and Mac/Cocoa port too.
 
 DFL seems to be Windows only? Tho I guess it isn't maintained anymore.
 
 
 Situation with D and GUI is kinda poor.
 I see hope in Andrej researches about wxPHP and bringing it to D.
 I see hope in reviewing QtD project, it used to be flagship product next to 
 DWT for D.
 DWT could be nice too if 64bt for Windows/Linux and Cocoa will be in.
 
 
 
 As for now, I would use GtkD ;-)
 

There is some other interesting option, but in an early stage:

 Hello.  I downloaded gtkD MS Windows installer, and I tried to
 compile one of the examples shown on the gtkD website:

 There is not GtkD MS Windows installer on gtkd site, You've installed gtk+ 
 runtime.
 
 So, you have to compile and install GtkD yourself on your system.
 
 Take a look at http://dsource.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5129
 

If you want GtkD out of the box, there are compiled packages ready for linux on 
gtkd site:
