Seb and I found the issue (TLDR: fix here: 
https://github.com/dlang/installer/pull/338)

The problem is downloading "install.sh" directly to 
"~/dlang/install.sh".  This causes the install script to think 
that it has already downloaded the "d-keyring.gpg" so it never 
downloads it, causing the "invalid signature" error.  The fix is 
to download "install.sh" if the d-keyring is not downloaded, even 
if install.sh already is.

What made it more confusing is that if it doesn't download 
d-keyring.gpg, then it will create a default one...making you 
think it was downloaded but it actually wasn't...odd.  In your 
case you'll want to manually remove "~/dlang/d-keyring.gpg" and 
use the new "install.sh" script after PR 338 is merged/deployed.
