Okay. I've got DMD 2.xxx running perfectly from the command line (or at 
least I think so, as I tested it successfully with a simple program, and 
  the version is shown correctly, and so on).

Now it's only about getting Code Blocks to recognize it. What I get 
there is:

    "practiceD - Debug" uses an invalid compiler. Skipping...
    Nothing to be done.

Well, that certainly looks ugly to me. Doesn't it look ugly to you too? 
:P If you're sitting at a computer, and you press that button, 
whereafter you see that message, it doesn't just look ugly, it also 
FEELS ugly. It's like... "Arrrrgh! What the hell's the problem now???!!"

So can anyone please help?

If it's of any help, the executable 'dmd' is in /usr/local/bin, and I 
have 'libphobos.a' in /usr/lib, and 'libphobos2.a' in /usr/local/lib.
