dmd2-2.052 is only for i386, while you are running amd64 (or dmd2 on FreeBSD)

It's really strange to have 32bit executable on 64bit OS these days
and I?m running 64bit OS for years.

One of the reasons to switch to FreeBSD was to spend less time
tinkering with the OS and "just use it".

I?m not familiar enough with FreeBSD, but the message from the subject
is what one gets when attempting to install DMD-2 on x86_64, so I
believe that 32bit executable on 64bit OS is not the right combo on
FreeBSD.

Considering that, I'm turning to gdc2/ldc2 which may just work out of
the box.


Sincerely,
Gour
