I think there is a confusion. The code that I quoted used to
workk with gcc-4.8 (4.8.0) source package of Debian/ubuntu, since
it did *not* include a src/gcc/d/ subfolder and a src/libphobos/
subfolder.
Things changed when the package was updated to gcc-4.8.1, as the
changelog show it:
http://ftp-master.metadata.debian.org/changelogs//main/g/gcc-4.8/gcc-4.8_4.8.1-2_changelog
"* Build D and libphobos packages from this source package."
That makes the gcc-4.8 (4.8.1) package to include a src/libphobos
and a src/gcc/d folders. The code that I quoted in the beginning
will fail with asking to manually remove the d sources form the
gcc tree.
The setup-gcc.sh should be modified accordingly: it does not try
to remove the folders libphobos/ and gcc/d, still complains about
their presence afterwards.
BTW, what version of gdc does the gcc-4.8 (4.8.1) package ships
with?
