git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd.git dmd-2.066.1

git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos.git phobos-2.066.1

After this I had three nice directories. Then I built dmd, it worked. 
Then I built druntime making sure I pass DMD=../dmd-2.066.1/src/dmd in 
make's command line. That worked, too.

When I built phobos I got:

====
Error: unrecognized switch '-conf='
====

How did it happen that the -conf= flag is required by phobos 2.066.1 yet 
was not implemented in the same version of dmd?


Thanks,

Andrei

Could that be because our default remotes are different (e.g. yours is 
your own fork)? -- Andrei

I don't think so, but it could be because I've got an older version of git. 
I took a quick look at the 2.066.1 tag on github, and it doesn't look like 
there's any mention of -conf in phobos' posix.mak 
(https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/blob/c8fccac8c20a3bdd6300128f610267a24d42473f/posix.mak)

Do you maybe have it in an environment variable or dmd.conf that's getting 
picked up?

Wait, so aren't we discussing a git-specific thing? (Anyhow I don't have 
an active dmd.conf. It's a fresh VM.) -- Andrei

Hmm.  What are the commit hashes for dmd, druntime and phobos?

What Git version are you using?

"git clone --branch" learned to work with tags in Git v1.7.10.

I haven't tried in a fresh VM, but that all works for me on Debian 
testing x64. I made sure no DMD was on my path and did this:

$ which dmd
$ mkdir test
$ cd test

$ git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd.git dmd-2.066.1

$ git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime.git druntime-2.066.1

$ git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos.git phobos-2.066.1

$ cd dmd-2.066.1
$ make -f posix.mak
$ cd ../druntime-2.066.1
$ make -f posix.mak DMD=../dmd-2.066.1/src/dmd
$ cd ../phobos-2.066.1
$ make -f posix.mak DMD=../dmd-2.066.1/src/dmd 
DRUNTIME_PATH=../druntime-2.066.1

Any difference from the make arguments you used? What OS?
