I use the svn repository, but I do believe it's the same, just run from 
within the extracted directory, if you want to install to the system run 
as root.

# ./dsss --prefix=<location>

I will explain why this works, dsss is designed to be used for compiling 
and installing D programs as you probably know. It uses a dsss.conf file 
to know how to do this. This file can be found there and thus you can run 
dsss to install itself.
