Right, but it doesn't have good Ada support. You'd have to turn to add-
ons such as the GNU Ada project (http://gnuada.sourceforge.net) and,
while I know they support various versions of Fedora, I'm not aware of
any specific support for CentOS.

Insofar as Ubuntu takes the Debian packages without any changes, yes.
However I do not monitor Ubuntu forums, bug reports or the like. Also,
a 6-month release cycle that does not guarantee that Ada packages are
all in good shape at the time of Ubuntu's release is not "enterprise",
not even "quasi" :)
