Building and packaging my libraries for ARM takes about 6 hours per 
distribution (Debian and Fedora) on RPI2.

Hmm, things like cross compiling and linking is not really an Ada issue. 
Native compilation is a lot of time, hardware (virtualized or not) and 
tools to move files across.

The major issue is that the maintainer of the repository has no chance 
to build and package contributed software from the sources. It means 
that this must be the responsibility of the contributor. Who in turn has 
no idea about the repository infrastructure to be able to deliver 
working scripts or rules to build and package for all range of targets. 
Nor he have the hardware to make and test their builds.
