digitalmars.D - Installation script for DMD Linux version

Hello guys (and girls, perhaps),

I've written a little bash script to ease the 'pain' (or for that matter shorten
the time needed for) of an installation of DMD under Linux. Just unpack the
dmd.zip and put the install.sh into the same directory, run it as root, and be
happy. :)

Usage:
/install.sh <prefix>

.where <prefix> is something like /usr, /usr/local or where ever you want
phobos' sources and dmd to be living.

https://80.108.15.143/svn/ocb/trunks/tools/dmd/install.sh


There's also a PKGBUILD available, written by a friend of mine:

Maybe it helps someone..,

I could add that too, of course. I'll just ask for switch like -d or --download.

Added a few lines to give the possibility to download dmd.zip via install.sh:

Usage:
/install.sh <prefix> [-d]

<prefix> -> as usual
-d -> Download dmd.zip from http://ftp.digitalmars.com/dmd.zip (DMDZIP_URL)

I've added some nice output and a cleaning up to the script. I renamed it also

Doesn't seem to work with me. Infact there's no reference to "--noroot" 
inside the script file as far as I can tell.

can't compile by "./<prefix>/bin/dmd stuff", because ld won't find 
libphobos.
But I've got a workaround for this:


 ./prefix/bin/dmd -c stuff
 gcc stuff.o -o stuff prefix/lib/libphobos.a -lpthread -lm



That worked on my server, logged in as normal user, install-d.sh 
executed with "--noroot" option.

Below I assume that your home directory is "/home/user".


1) cd /home/user

3) download the current dmd.zip and save as /home/user/dmd.zip

4) unzip dmd.zip

5) chmod +x /home/user/dmd/bin/dmd

6) create the file /home/user/dmd.sh with the following 2 lines:
#!/bin/bash
/home/user/dmd/bin/dmd -I/home/user/dmd/src/phobos -L-L/home/user/dmd/lib $*

7) chmod =rx /home/user/dmd.sh

8) happy compiling, e.g.: /home/user/dmd.sh source.d

The lines that have: ` ... ` , such as:
   `echo "Extracting failed. Aborting installation."; exit 1`
and others, are they correct?
The ` operators, (what's the name of that character? backquote?) will 
cause the shell to run the command given by the output of the command 
given to ` `. So:
   `echo "Extracting failed. Aborting installation."; exit 1`
will try to run the command "Extracting" which of course doesn't make sense.
