I didn't have to do that on my Debian Unstable, but maybe I was lucky.
However the structure:

	libphobos2.so the file
	libphobos2.so.0.63 a symbolic link to libphobos2.so

is non-standard and not compliant. The standard structure should be:

	libphobos2.so.0.63 the file
	libphobos2.so.0 a symbolic link to libphobos2.so.0.63
	libphobos2.so a symbolic link to libphobos2.so.0
