- Remove wrong requires to 'ldc-utils' as there is no such package
- Disable bootstrap in Tumbleweed and Leap 15+ as it is bootstrapped already
and to workaround https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2947
- Add bash-completion sub-package
- Update to 1.13.0:
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.083.1.
(#2878, #2893, #2920, #2933) (new)
- The Windows packages are now fully self-sufficient, i.e., a
Visual Studio/C++ Build Tools installation isn't required anymore,
as we now ship with MinGW-w64-based libraries, similar to DMD. Check out
the included README.txt for all relevant details.
(dlang/installer#346, #2886, Wiki: Cross-compiling with LDC)
- Debug info improvements:
- For GDB: printing global and imported symbols, non-member
and member function calls. (#2826)
- For Visual Studio and mago: names, by-value params, nested
variables. (#2895, #2908, #2909, #2912)
- Associative arrays now showing up properly (at least with mago),
not as opaque void* anymore. (#2869)
- -gc now translates D names to C++ ones, e.g., to use the regular
Visual Studio debugger (bypassing mago) and as preparation for VS Code
debugging with Microsoft's C/C++ plug-in (screenshots). Thanks to
Oleksandr for this contribution and the AA fix! (#2869)
- New command-line option -fvisibility=hidden to hide functions/globals
not marked as export (for non-Windows targets), primarily to reduce the
size of shared libraries. Thanks to Andrey for stepping up! (#2894, #2923)
- Dropped support for LLVM 3.7 and 3.8. (#2872)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages upgraded to v7.0.1. (new)
- Linux: now defaulting to ld.gold linker in general, not just with
-flto=thin, as buggy older ld.bfd versions may wrongly strip out required
symbols (change with -linker). (#2870)
- Improved support for Android/x86[_64], musl libc and FreeBSD/AArch64.
(#2917, ldc-developers/druntime#146) (new)
- LDC-specific druntime: ldc.simd.inlineIR moved/renamed to ldc.llvmasm.__ir
(with deprecated legacy alias). (#2931) (new)
- New CMake option COMPILE_D_MODULES_SEPARATELY builds D files in the DDMD
frontend separately to reduce the time required to build LDC with many
CPU cores and/or for iterative development. (#2914)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 3.9 - 7.0.
- Alpine linux/x64: built against Musl libc to support Docker images based on
the Alpine distro, requires the llvm5-libs, musl-dev, binutils-gold and gcc
packages to build and link D apps and the tzdata and curl-dev packages for
certain stdlib modules.
* Bug fixes
- 32-bit Android/ARM regression introduced in v1.12. (#2892)
- Non-Windows x86_64 ABI fixes wrt. what's passed in registers,
relevant for C[++] interop. (#2864)
- Some issues with beta1's newly bundled Windows libraries. (#2900, #2903)
- Alignment of scope allocated class instances. (#2919)
- Beta2's -fvisibility=hidden causing lots of linker errors.
(#2922, #2923) (new)
- Update so_version to 83
- Disable ppc64 builds (boo#1113531)
