I am planning to try D for the first time in my life. I have a MacBook
Pro running OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).

I went on the D downloads page and clicked on the link for the dmd 2.060
installer for OS X. I opened it and double clicked on the "DMD2.pkg"
file within it. The installer came up with some text including a line
that read "This package is intended for Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) only.".
I tried to find a version for OS X 10.6 but I couldn't, so I ignored the
warning and clicked "Continue".

It's supposed to work even if it says "This package is intended for Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) only.".

I clicked through the agreements and questions, and then when it
finished, the installer gave this message:

The installation failed. The Installer encountered an error that
caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for
assistance.

Why did this happen? What am I supposed to do about it?

Hmm, can you check the Console and see if it says anything about the installation.

Instead of this installer I would recommend installing DMD using DVM:

"DVM allows you to easily download and install D compilers and manage different versions of the compilers."

It's also cross-platform.
