I've cloned the main repositories and i'm trying to get everything building successfully. DMD, druntime and phobos all built without a hitch. When building the tools however i'm getting a lot of warnings from new compiler features (which is to be expected i guess) but i'm also getting linker errors.

Here was my original build command:

make -f posix.mak MODEL=64 DMD=../dmd/src/dmd -j5;

That issues errors so i decided to use this:

rdmd --build-only --compiler=/media/Data/Projects/D/dmd/dmd/src/dmd --force rdmd.d

and here's the output:

Here is my dmd.conf:

[Environment32]
DFLAGS=-I/media/Data/Projects/D/dmd/phobos -I/media/Data/Projects/D/dmd/druntime/import -L-L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu -L--export-dynamic

[Environment64]
DFLAGS=-I/media/Data/Projects/D/dmd/phobos -I/media/Data/Projects/D/dmd/druntime/import -L-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -L--export-dynamic

Any ideas why i'm getting these linker errors?

This seems to be because i wasn't correctly specifying the newly generated phobos lib in the dmd.conf.
