  • for info: re macOS Ventura and GNAT

    From Bill Findlay@21:1/5 to All on Tue Nov 1 19:18:47 2022
    I installed Ventura on my (Intel) MBP and it went perfectly,
    with GNAT and fpc working as expected.

    Emboldened, I then put it on my (Intel) iMac, my workhorse machine.

    On reboot both GNAT (FSF 12.2.0) and fpc compilations failed.

    GNAT failed because /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin
    had been emptied of everything useful.

    To fix it I had to completely re-install CommandLineTools,
    which was more difficult than it should have been because
    I had been removed from the sudoers file. 8-(

    GNAT now runs again, using the newly-installed CLT software,
    and the exception-handling bug that appeared with the recent
    XCode update has not made a re-appearance.

    fpc failed because it could not find libc any more,
    so I had to edit my build procedure to tell it where to look
    (i.e. /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/).

    Congratulations on Getting GNAT to work.
    I am not having any success.
    Everything fails with
    gcc: error trying to exec 'gnat1': execvp: No such file or directory
    For example:
    Roger@Rogers-Mac-mini iris % gnatmake src/iris.adb
    gcc -c -Isrc/ -I- src/iris.adb
    gcc: error trying to exec 'gnat1': execvp: No such file or directory
    gnatmake: "src/iris.adb" compilation error

    Same trying to compile a simple C program:
    Roger@Rogers-Mac-mini /tmp % gcc /tmp/foo.c -o /tmp/foo
    gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory

    Mac OSX 13.0 (22A380)
    Xcode Version 14.1 (14B47b)
    GNAT Community 2019 (20190517-83)
    Latest Command Line Tools installed

    Any ideas on what's going wrong or how to fix it?
    Thanks,
    Roger
