Bug 22380 – Documentation for installation of DMD on FreeBSD is inaccurate

The documentation for installation of DMD on FreeBSD on the page https://dlang.org/dmd-freebsd.html is inaccurate in multiple ways. 1. Put dmd2/freebsd/bin on your PATH. There is no freebsd/bin directory: dca@giovanni:/home/dca/Software/dmd2/freebsd$ ls bin32 bin64 lib64 In my case, the bin64 directory needs to be in PATH. 2. The page also instruct you to Copy the standard library and runtime sources to /usr/include/d/dmd: sudo mkdir -p /usr/include/d/dmd sudo cp dmd2/{phobos/std,phobos/etc,druntime/import} /usr/include/d/dmd Those directories are in dmd2/src, not dmd2. Also the cp command requires the -r option, since directories are being copied. The correct command is sudo cp -r dmd2/src/{phobos/std,phobos/etc,druntime/import} /usr/include/d/dmd
