This may be fine on operating systems that lack a package manager but this contradicts the Debian Ada Policy, which requires all Ada packages to depend on the same gnat compiler. Therefore, please package alire in such a way that the binary package depends on, and uses, the existing Debian packages i.e. gnat-12, libgnatcoll21 and libxmlezout7 at run-time, and build-depends and uses the corresponding -dev packages at compile time. -- Ludovic Brenta.
