Re: Gnat Installation conflict on Linux

Hi,

I had similar problems... the problem is that the tgz version is 
replacing gcc. The RPM version is compiled differently, it's called 
gnatgcc (or so).

My solution is to put /usr/gnat/bin in the beginning of the path,
in the .bashrc for my "ada" account, and leave the other accounts as is.
This allows 'root' to compile other stuff with gcc-2.9.x...

Using slackware 8.0 !
PS: you might want to upgrate to emacs21.1 from slackware.com - current
