>Ok, I built it from sources using its last release from github. That's a great start. :)
>Could I help to make this package working? Of course. :) If you don't have prior experience with packaging, I would start looking at the Ubuntu packaging guide http://packaging.ubuntu.com/. Particularly the chapter which packages a small sample http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html which should give an overview of how things work. Once you get that example working, you can start looking at how ghdl was packaged and work on upgrading it. Try to download the old ghdl package (the latest version before it was removed) and use the packaging information (the debian-folder) with the latest release. This sometimes require to patch the software or update the packaging information. For instance the list of dependencies will need to be updated with gnat-4.9 as you already mentioned, though there might be other changes. With a working package, it can be submitted for inclusion in the Ubuntu archives. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1606339 Title: Xenial version missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghdl/+bug/1606339/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
