Description Orlando Arias 2009-02-07 05:56:57 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009020410 Fedora/3.0.6-1.fc10 Firefox/3.0.6

ldc is a D Programming Language Compiler. It is based on llvm (already in Fedora) and is licensed under a three-clause BSD license for the most part.

LDC is released under the "three-clause BSD" license reproduced below with 
the following exceptions:

The DMD frontend in dmd/* is originally written by Walter Bright and released
under the artistic license (dmd/artistic.txt) or the GPL version 1 (dmd/gpl.txt).

The files gen/asmstmt.cpp and gen/asm-*.h were originally written by David
Friedman for GDC and released under the artistic license (dmd/artistic.txt) or
the GPL version 2 or later.

I am under x86_64 and I haven't tried to build this yet, I expect success though.

If anything else is needed, let me know.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Uhh, so you haven't made a RPM? You have to make one before someone can review it:

Also, you need to get sponsored before you can get the package into Fedora:

This looks more like a wishlist entry to me.

This is not a package review request but some twisted form of entry for a wishlist. Feel free to reopen if/when you can provide packages for review. Otherwise please pay a visit to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/WishList

Comment 3 Orlando Arias 2009-02-07 13:53:06 UTC
Ugh, how embarrassing, should have read the wiki on this. I didn't want to make a tisted form of entry for a wish list. I managed to build it, but not the required method. I do not have the time to become a contributor right now since I won't be able to keep up with code maintenance.
Feel free to delete this, guys. Sorry.
