Hi,

	I'm officially deprecating the old ArchLinux gdc-svn package.
Instead I've uploaded two packages: gdc1-hg [1] and gdc2-hg [2] for
D1 and D2 respectively.

	It appears that Tango is not compatible with recent versions of
gdc: I get this message: "mismatch between dmd and object.d or
object.di found" whatever I do, which prevents me from updating the
gdc-tango package.

Which version of Tango are you using, or where are you getting it from?

Looks like Tango has not been able to keep up with the speed of GDC updates, so quite a number of the hacks they do on behalf of GDC in that release are no longer necessary.

Has already been fixed in the trunk. http://dsource.org/projects/tango/changeset/5520

I cannot comment on whether or not the trunk builds though (mwarning is probably
the best person to ask). I should pay more attention/give it a try sometime though. =)

Regards
Iain

I'm currently working on fixing tango runtime for gdc (using a modified bob.sh to
build)

Here is the ticket in tango: http://dsource.org/projects/tango/ticket/2010

Any feedback or WIP patches would be helpful.

	The latest Tango trunk works with the latest gdc Mercurial. Thanks
Iain!

	However, I tried running the GC benchmark from
http://dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/GCBenchmark. It works with
Tango but it segfaults with Phobos. When running it in gdb I saw
that at some point an object has a null vptr:
