Yay bullet lists. The bullet point after that one explains it, sorry. :>

If this is a regression, it should be marked as such in bugzilla, instead of 'normal'.

Yes, it is, sorry, apparently I forgot to change the severity before hitting Submit.

Looks like my install script broke, and the old compiler was uploaded.

Fixed.

Please let's put that on github in installer, like, right now. If you did it yesterday, it would've been too late. If you have any paths that are specific to your networking configuration, hoist them into variables and invoke the script with arguments.

We should grow a very strong aversion for any process seat-of-the-pants, "in my ~/bin/", "ah I use my history", that influences the way we deliver software.

We want one million users. To do so, we need to be ready for one million users.


Thanks,

Andrei

The more I think about it the more I think we need a tool for automatically checking out and building the latest releases of DMD/druntime/Phobos that's:

1.  Easy to use.

2.  Well-documented.

3.  Cross-platform.

4.  Configurability/not hard-coding everything.

I don't know how many times I've put off creating pull requests for relatively minor improvements to Phobos because of the hassle of either writing such a tool myself (I've written a quick/dirty/ad-hoc one just for myself but it really sucks in almost all attributes mentioned) or manually updating everything before I could get started.

Given that Walter apparently has a tool that's most of the way there, it would be great if he released it.

At least the source/druntime/import folder is incomplete - missing object.di.

Doesn't DVM do this? It doesn't package stuff like we need for a release, but if you need to build a specific version of all 3 repos (including the latest), DVM should do the job - at least as I understand it. I've never actually used it.

Yes, this is correct. It's the "dvm compile <optional path>" command. It
should be able to handle that stuff, other than generate packaged
releases. If there's any problems/limitations with it, please file a
ticket.

Fixed. win32.mak was broken.
