Hallo,

has somebody already created an GDC ebuild for Gentoo Linux?

That sure would be nice!

I've written a scipt. It compiles gdc *LOL*
But we will have a problem: I can't compile phobos before gdc is installed, because the configure scripts tries to find gdc...
One will have to emerge an phobos ebuild...
It would be nice if David changed the source packages and released an extra phobos package.

I submitted two ebuilds to gentoo.

You should be able to install gdc by "emerge phobos"
as soon as it is in portage.

Wow!

That was fast.  Thanks, I'll check on this.  How long does it take to get into portage.  I didn't realize the project would be accepted so readily into the portage tree.

Thanks for doing this.

Later,

John

This is an opportunity to start testing some of the D Linux Projects on GDC.  Some other guys are currently using Gentoo anyway (hint, hint, Brad). www.dsource.org will certainly have good test material for it.

I don't know if it will be accepted ;-)
All I could do was writing a bug report for it (BugID 48136). It were about 2 days until my dmd ebuild was online, so we will see...

I'm not seeing a dmd ebuild, and I just did an emerge sync. I am still fairly new to portage and figure I'm not looking in the right place. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks.

Cheers,

Hi Craig,
    The ebuilds can be grabbed from the Gentoo Bugzilla. The gcc front end is at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48136

Download and put them in your local portage. By default, it's /usr/local/portage/ ( edit /etc/make.conf and set PORTAGE_OVERLAY )

I put the gdc and phobos ebuild in

/usr/local/portage/dev-lang/gdc/gdc-0.0.1-rc5.edbuild
/usr/local/portage/dev-lang/phobos/phobos-0.0.1-rc5.edbuild

Then emerge -p gdc phobos;
This will ensure that the ebuilds were found by portage, then

emerge gdc phobos.

If you need it, dmd can be grabbed from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46806

Do the same thing for dmd as gdc above.

Cheers,

Dan

Craig already got that working. See his post to "gentoo busy?"
I had a ebuild for dmd that was inside portage, but it was deleted ;-(
