I'm trying to use GDC and I have GCC installed on my system. When 
I type GCC --version, I get this result:

Then I installed GDC with the command:
 sudo apt install gdc

Immediately after, I got the following warnings:

 The following additional packages will be installed:

 The following NEW packages will be installed:

Yeah, GDC is installed on my system now. But when I did a test 
and ran it, it wrote on my screen:

```d
/*--------------------------------------------------
~/Documents/Ddili$ gdc -c dVer.d
user debian:~/Documents/Ddili$ ./a.out
D Compiler v2.068
--------------------------------------------------*/
```

According to my take the impression I should use the command:

 sudo apt autoremove

I guess my apt repositories are too old! Any suggestions for an 
update?

You need to download the source and build it yourself.
