Due to a screwup on my part, I had to reinstall my Pi's OS (was 
quicker than looking up the potential solution), and since I 
don't need multiple separate versions of D, I want to do away 
with the `activate`/`deactivate` scripts, especially as this 
method isn't liked by certain applications. I once solved this, 
but I forgot it since it's a very unintuitive process.

What I did in my linux VM is in .bashrc script, was to add 
``~/.local/bin/ldc*/bin`` to the PATH variable, and simply extract ldc 
out into ``~/.local/bin`` manually.

Whereas for a Gitlab CI I used the install script with:

```sh
source $(realpath -m $(curl -fsS https://dlang.org/install.sh | bash -s 
get-path dmd --install)/../../../activate)
```

Does either of this help you?
