Ok, I didn't realize they were different packages.

I now get the error

./bin/ldmd2: error while loading shared libraries: 
libncursesw.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

and trying to install libncursesw is missing. I tried installing 
libncurses5 and it worked, but, of course, not version 6 or 
whatever. tried various things... nothing works.

./bin/ldc2: error while loading shared libraries: 
libncursesw.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

I downloaded the sources. I had to install gcc, make, then I did 
./configure --enable-widec 
(http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=1161942), then 
ran make.. I end up getting the errors

So, now I do not know what to do next.


Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libncurses6

(This is why I hate working linux, so much obfuscation... so many 
potential points of failure)

Also, once I go through all this trouble, I have to do it again 
for the arm verson(using x86-64 ldc)? Can I install on the same 
system or will the libraries conflict and I'll have to go through 
all this mess again?
