Acting on Patrick's question,

I installed (again) Debian's gnat and the libraries compiled.  My
regression tests run  to completion, and it seems GHDL is correctly
installed.

Thanks for your help and patience!

--x--

In spite of being somewhat experienced with Linux-Debian administration, I
got confused in the process of building GHDL  :)

The instructions say the GNAT should, preferably, be that from
http://libre.adacore.com.

I downloaded the tarball with the latest version and installed the files at
/usr/local.

This is the GNAT with the "GNAT GPL 2016" version number, and the one which
the make-ing of the libraries says "gnat compiler cannot be found".

Considering Patrick's suggestion, I downloaded the (very old) GNAT 4.6 of
the Debian distro and with this version, GHDL compiled all the libraries.

The permissions and PATHs were all double-checked before asking for help on
ghdl-discuss.

I guess I ought to have stuck with the proven 2014 GNAT.


Please note that this is not a complaint, just a report on my experience.


Regards,
    Roberto
