Makes me thinking...wouldn't it be nice if EVERYTHING I am unable to install,
to build or to develop --- is definitely broken? For if I can't do it, nobody
ca do it?
I think rather no. Maybe building GNAT is not an easy thing, I do not know.
Although I managed a whole lot of software installations also from
source until now I failed to build GNAT. Most problably this was due to
lack of both time and experience (that was also my first try to compile gcc).
On the otherhand a collegue of mine sure succeded in compiling, linking and
installing gcc with C/C++ and Ada-support (That was GNAT 3.03 or 3.04.) within
two days. And it only took him that long because the machine was not the
fastest at that time. As far as I remember he too had some problems which
occured due to usage of the wrong optimization level. Sure it was explained
in the installation instructions. :-} We just did not look at it carefully
enough.
So is GNAT 3.10 broken? I very strongly believe this is not the case: using
a lot of binary versions for quite a time now --- on different plattform ---
I am sure the binaries are working. And those binaries must be built from
some source, don't they? And I can't imagine that Mr. Dewar or anyone else at
ACT will change their releases just in order to leave YOU unable to build that
release. Especially if there are some folks who tell you that they've
succeeded.
Well, just a few thoughts...if I am able to admit something is or at least
was beyond my capabilies --- why can't you? Just blaming other people does
not help you very much, especially if you do it in such an aggressive and
unpolite way.
Have nice day
Yours
Joerg
