Maybe you should add the fact that LDC also runs on FreeBSD now (issue #451).

I can compile example source file (app.d) along with all ArtemisD source files by "ldc2 app.d $SRCs" without error. However, "ldc2 -lib $SRCs -ofartemisd" then "ldc2 app.d -L-lartemisd" led to a link error(undefined reference), any mistake I made?

Please either:
 * Upload an archive containing the source code including druntime/phobos
OR
 * Update the ldc-developers forks of phobos/druntime, and create a tag/release matching the ldc tag/release.

It would help me create gentoo ebuilds that pull everything from github.

Thanks!

Why not use the gentoo-overlay (see http://wiki.dlang.org/Installing_LDC_on_Gentoo)?

Can't you edit the release notes as well? Just press the »Edit Release« button on the GitHub release page.

Turns out we/I missed the following bug report before deciding to push out the alpha: https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/454

Well, I guess that's what alpha versions are for.

Glad it helped, looking forward to a fix.

Oh, I missed the edit button. Done.

1. Gentoo overlay doesn't have an alpha ebuild.
2. Gentoo overlay ebuild looks like it installs some files directly instead of to the temporary image directory first and letting portage do the rest.

Making matching tags/releases in the ldc phobos & druntime repos would make keeping gentoo overlay up-to-date easier.
It would also remove the need to fetch the source code from a third party host.
