Recently I installed Fedora and Debian GNAT distributions and discovered that basically all two years old bugs known to me are still present. Some of these bugs were fixed in GNAT GPL 2009, others in GNAT Pro 6.3. So my question is: is there any information or summary on the Web about how Linux distributions are related to AdaCore releases? Or maybe somebody knowledgeable could create and maintain this as a wiki etc. It is important with respect to submitting bug reports. I already did some to Debian. But then I started to discover more and more. Because the bugs I am talking about are known fixed, in my eyes, it does not make any sense to submit them again. (Provided, GNAT will not be developed independently on AdaCore, rather than merely packaged) -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
