As it states, quite simply, the DMD Linux binary does not link to libstdc++ version 6 or above.  I'd suggest grabbing a copy of a libstdc++ version 5 from Fedora.

Thanks.

The command you might want here is:
yum provides libstdc++.so.5

Which on Fedora Core 4 claims it's in:
compat-libstdc++-33.i386                 3.2.3-47.fc4           base 


Thus, I installed this oldskool library:
yum install compat-libstdc++-33

Or actually, the new DMD RPM I did "required" it.
(but is having some problems rebuilding, on GCC4)


I like packages.
