I have found a couple of relevant packages, the ports collection even includes GNAT GPL 2010, but certainly the coverage is much less impressive than that of Debian. If you are using Ada on FreeBSD, what is your general perception of the toolchain integration and portability? What is the extent of your use of Ada on this system? Do you use GtkAda there? AWS? And so on - any feedback welcome. One might have an impression that FreeBSD is somewhat abandoned by the Ada community (even on this group there were only few posts during the last decade), but with closer look things might not be so bad. -- Maciej Sobczak * http://www.inspirel.com
