It installs the latest dmd and ldc but only a 2013 version of
gdc.
Are there any plans to have it install the latest gdc?
You can check the code - that historically it was taken releases
from https://gdcproject.org/downloads
But when GDC joined official GCC - these releases are not
preparing anymore. And the suggested way to install GDC is from
GCC packages.
I don't think there are plans for revamping GDC binaries
preparation, if only somebody from community will step-in for
this task.
Solus doesn't build GCC with flags that include D compiler.
What you can do - find another Solus GCC language (for example
Ada) that is not the part of main GCC package - and try to
prepare similar package for D
