I installed fresh Fedora 22, than dmd-2.068 from the download page for Fedora. When building for example dub, there is a problem with libcurl linking. I have libcurl-devel installed, but noticed that there is just: /lib64/libcurl.so.4 -> libcurl.so.4.3.0 /lib64/libcurl.so.4.3.0 So I fixed it with: ln -s libcurl.so.4 libcurl.so This is definitelly not a great user experience for newcomers. Fedora package should depend on the libcurl-devel if its needed and linking should be handled to work out of the box ideally. Similar problem discussed here for Ubuntu: http://forum.dlang.org/post/[email protected]
