Message-ID: <lp5uti$ofv$1@speranza.aioe.org> (raw)
some basic questions. Goggling these is giving me hard so
I thought I ask here.
What is the correct way to install Ada on Linux these days?
I am on Linux mint 17.
1) Should one install GNAT on Linux by downloading tar files from
http://libre.adacore.com (GPL 2014 edition) or use
sudo apt-get install gnat-4.8
2) Will the sudo installation install all the stuff listed at
libre.adacore.com? including GPS editor and all the other
packages?
3) Which is more recent, gnat-4.8 or GPL 2014 edition?
4) When I go to http://libre.adacore.com/download/configurations
is there a way to tell it to check everything for download,
without one having to spend 1 hr clicking on the check-box
for each item? I do not see "select all"
It is really confusing having Ada/GNAT in 2 different places.
Why not have one place to install Ada from so it is less
confusing to users?
