Hi all,

I recently installed dmd from brew (a package manager for OSX). To my surprise, it ship without phobos, which makes it unusable. Additionally, phobos is nowhere to be found in the package manager.

Can someone look into this ?

The actual brew itself seems to install phobos, have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling or updating your homebrew program?(Sorry, I don't use OSX - I just had a quick look at the brew recipe : ) )

Maybe then, dmd.conf is wrong. In any case, dmd seems unable to find phobos.

Yes I tried to uninstall and reinstall. The problem remains.

Sorry, that's quite possibly my fault. I'll look in to it in a few hours.

I don't see any particular problems. Do you have a dmd.conf hanging around in /etc by any chance? The one used by homebrew dmd is at /usr/local/etc/dmd.conf

Does anyone know of a way to get dmd to print the path of the chosen dmd.conf?

touch empty.d
dmd -o- -v empty.d | grep ^config

cheers. It would be great if there was a simple switch for that, dmd.conf misplacement/duplication is among the most common problem people have with dmd installations.

Even better, dmd would list *all* the dmd.conf's it can find, in order of preference.

Would that be possible to issue a warning at install time if a dmd.conf is known is some location ?

Actually, in git HEAD, all you need to do is:

	dmd | grep ^Config

No need for empty files.
