I really like the installer script on dlang.org:

https://dlang.org/download.html
https://dlang.org/install.html

`curl -fsS https://dlang.org/install.sh | bash -s ldc`

this will install the selected version e.g. into 
$HOME/dlang/ldc-1.42.0.
There will be an activate.{sh,fish} scripts to setup all env 
variables correctly in your shell.
With that you can easily install different versions of the 
toolchain and switch on demand between them.

Kind regards,
Christian
