Re: Improving Ada support on FreeBSD and in the ports system
Status update. I've now begun producing regular builds from GCC SVN for GCC, G++, GNAT and fortran on 7.2 amd64. The build logs are published here: http://gcc.coreland.ath.cx/ I'm hoping this will increase awareness of regressions before they make their way back into releases (the formal GCC releases rarely contain merged code from SVN for GNAT). I've still been completely unable to get GPL 2009 to compile on amd64 so am currently continuing the work to update (and add new) Ada ports.

The above, however, seems to be a problem with the GCC core. It looks very i386 to me... There doesn't appear to be any explicit support for FreeBSD amd64/x86_64 in those GCC sources as far as I can tell and not being very familiar with the GCC codebase, I'm not sure how much work it'll be to add them.

That both advises users that they don't compile, and also triggers a periodic email to the ports@ mailing list. Beyond that we have to rely on work done by individual contributors. Seems reasonable. Most of the general mechanisms for selecting port alternative foo vs. bar live in ports/Mk. In particular, you will probably want to look at ports/Mk/bsd.gcc.mk. A more advanced example is in bsd.java.mk. Note: don't feel bad if you don't understand the contents of these files; they have evolved to their current state over quite some period of time. It's perfectly fair to ask for help. It's on the list. Thanks! For something like this that isn't widely used, I wouldn't spend too much time on anything other than i386 and amd64. That's where the majority of our user base is (I'm guessing 80% and 15%, respectively, based on the PR arrival statistics.) That's good to know. I don't have any sparc64 machines laying around...

It's come to my attention that the FreeBSD ports system has very poor support for Ada and Ada software in general. A quick search on Freshports for 'Ada' shows the following packages: devel/adabooch- No dependencies registered! devel/adacurses - lang/gnat devel/adasdl - lang/gnat net/adasockets- lang/gnat (broken) textproc/xmlada - lang/gnat-gcc41 (broken) textproc/xmlada-gps - lang/gnat (broken) x11-toolkits/gtkada - lang/gnat (broken) x11-toolkits/gtkada-devel - lang/gnat (broken) x11-toolkits/gtkada-gcc - lang/gnat-gcc41 (broken) x11-toolkits/gtkada-gps - lang/gnat (broken) I'm aware there are more packages than this in the ports sytem. The situation doesn't get any better the more you read... The problems any user of Ada on FreeBSD faces are: PROBLEM 1. Lack of packages (as shown above) Of the 10 packages listed, only three of those (maybe two) actually work. The packages are way out of date and don't build with the newer GNAT's. Patches welcome. PROBLEM 2. No choice in the use of compiler The Ada world is essentially divided between the GCC version of GNAT that can produce executables not tainted by the GPL (GNAT-FSF) and the GPL version (GNAT-GPL) from AdaCore which can't. Debian, for example, only uses GNAT-FSF (but one can, of course, just download GNAT-GPL from AdaCore and use it without issue). PROBLEM 3.
