There is a Gentoo portage overlay for the LDC compiler officially supported by the developers. To use it, simply add the URL for the overlay to /etc/layman/layman.cfg:

overlays  : [http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/repositories.xml]
            [https://raw.github.com/ldc-developers/gentoo-overlay/master/overlays.xml]

Then you can add the LDC overlay:

layman -a ldc

To emerge LDC you simply type:

emerge -av ldc2

Currently the LDC packages are marked as unstable. If you do not accept unstable packages globally then you have to add to /etc/portage/package.keywords the entry

dev-lang/ldc2 **
