Package: gdc
Version: 4:8-20180321-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

The gdc package says:

> Depends: gdc-8 (>= 8-20180321-1~), libgphobos-dev (= 8-20180321-1)
> Description-en: D compiler (language version 2), based on the GCC backend
>  This is a dependency package providing the default D compiler.
>  Per policy, all packages that contain D sources must use this package
>  in their Build-Depends line.

The default-d-compiler package says:

> Depends: ldc (>= 1:1.8)
> Description-en: Default D compiler (metapackage)
>  This is a metapackage installing the default D compiler in Debian
>  for the respective architecture.
>  .
>  Packages building D code should depend on this.

Only one of these can be true :)
