When I was maintaining gcc, I asked multiple times for the maintainer of GNAT to send me the necessary files, but I never heard from him. It only takes 2 or 3 files being in the right place and gcc's configure script will automatically include Ada support. Fortran support is already done in this way.

Re: g77 failure
The Ada package as shipped from NYU includes a replacement gcc binary for the matching release; I was going to avoid the problem by shipping it as ada-gcc instead of the redirected gcc (I didn't really expect 2.7.2.1 to come out, and 2.8 will have all the changes built in...) The GNAT package has to match the gcc release anyway, so having the patches in wouldn't have helped much -- 3.05 is still current, and still requires 2.7.2 [3.08 was the last one mentioned as a release candidate after 3.07 had some problems...] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: g77 failure
As I understand it, f77 wants gcc 2.7.2 and not gcc 2.7.2.1 As a workaround I did now the following: cd /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.1/ ln -s ../2.7.2/libf2c.a . ln -s ../2.7.2/f771 . I will now have to check wether it still works in all cases. Development team: Please consider if there shouldn't be a dependency between g77 and gcc versions, which shall be resolved by dselect. That would stop you installing these two together at all. A similar problem applies with GNAT Ada; it wants gcc 2.7.2, and in fact replaces the gcc executable, so things don't go nicely if you try to run gcc 2.7.2.1 + gnat 3.04 (well, 3.05 is out but not in a package). I did mention this on the list a while back and to the maintainer; I'm not sure what's being done about resolving this, though. GNAT supplies a new gcc binary because Ada support is disabled in gcc 2.7.2's binary by default, and needs to be recompiled with it enabled. Ideally, the GCC package will have gcc with this enabled, and the GNAT package will not supply a gcc at all. Hopefully this will happen for the next GNAT package version, which is awaiting GNAT 3.06 (based on gcc 2.7.2.1). hamish -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

I think it was this; cd /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux ln /2.7.2/f771 2.7.2.1/f771 and it looks like I did the same for libf2c.a and possibly the include subdirectory. Probably not the right way, but it works for me. I should have made soft links. Since I did hard links, I can't even tell whether I made the link from 2.7.2 to 2.7.2.1 or vice versa. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
