"libphobos2-nn" and other packages ending with "-nn" contains the shared library necessary to run programs linked against them, so for this reason these packages have version on its name, allowing to install multiple versions of the same library.

Different case is "dmd" and development packages "-dev". Debian packaging system do not allow to install multiple versions of the same package at same time.

i.e. "dmd_2.064.2-0_amd64.deb" is newer version of "dmd_2.063.2-0_amd64.deb", and upgrades it.
same with "libphobos2-dev_2.064.2_amd64.deb", which replaces "libphobos2-dev_2.063.2_amd64.deb" by an upgrade.

To have multiple dmd versions on your system, you can use the Jacob Carlborg project <https://github.com/jacob-carlborg/dvm>
