Hello, Being stuck with gnat 4.6 is a problem of an old Debian. My Debian 9 has a gnat 6.3 :)
Even Debian 8 / 8.x should use a gnat 4.9 or 5.x. Kind regards Patrick -------- Originalnachricht -------- Betreff: Re: [Ghdl-discuss] problem GNAT while compiling the libraries Von: Roberto Hexsel An: ghdl-discuss@gna.org Cc: Acting on Patrick's question, > I find it strange that your gnat names himself "GNAT GPL 2016" instead of > gnat 6.3.0 or any other GCC like version number. > > What is your system's name?

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.
