I believe I asked about the converse problem here a month or so back.  I pu=
t the gnat gcc on my path ahead of the standard gcc that comes with linux, =
 and at least one other programming setup,  ie opam builds for  OCaml, woul=
d not work with the gnat binaries found  first on the path.

I believe that I have also seen the "No compilers" message.  Might it have =
been when the gnat binaries were hidden by being too far down the path?=20

There is a new release of linux mint that has a newer version of the FSF gc=
c.  I hope to install that in the next few months and that it will be possi=
ble to use it for Ada programming well enough that I don't think it is a go=
od idea to install the gnat binaries that conflict by name with the rest of=
 the distro.
