Two regressions found in previous beta are now fixed. Otherwise NAD.

Everything looks green:

Though I haven't tested release builds.

Who maintains the homebrew recipe? The --devel package is still at beta 1.

That would be me. Waiting for merge: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/pull/50539

Thanks!

Would it be against the homebrew spirit for the DMD recipe to link to some URL like <...lastest-devel.tar.gz>? After all, that already happens with the --HEAD version, which doesn't link to any specific git commit. That way we wouldn't have to wait for the homebrew merges. There's the issue of the hash, but the --HEAD version doesn't have that either, and https://dlang.org should be trusted.

I'm 99.9% certain the Homebrew core devs wouldn't allow something like that.

Actually this morning I've setup and tested 2.070.2 instead of the beta and now, with the right version, one of the regression is still there.
Unfortunately I was not able to make a good report:

I'm compiling my projects using the new beta. I get some errors about the new import rules that I don't really understand:

clang/Type.d(114,24): Deprecation: local import search method found overloadset clang.Type.isEmpty instead of overloadset clang.Type.isEmpty

This is where it complains [1], "isEmpty" pulled in from here [2] and declared here [3].

I've found other confusing error messages. Compiling the following code:

class Foo
{
    import core.stdc.config;

    struct Bar
    {
        c_long a, b; // line 7
    }
}

With the -transition=checkimports flag gives the following error messages:

main.d(1): Deprecation: class main.Foo alias core.stdc.config.c_long found in local import
main.d(7): Deprecation: local import search method found nothing (null) instead of alias core.stdc.config.c_long
main.d(1): Deprecation: class main.Foo alias core.stdc.config.c_long found in local import
main.d(7): Deprecation: local import search method found nothing (null) instead of alias core.stdc.config.c_long
