• Ada Support on Archlinux

    From Rod Kay@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jul 10 04:22:50 2023
    Hello.all,

    Unfortunately, the attempt to have gprbuild and xmlada added into
    the official Archlinux package repositories has not been successful. Nonetheless, thanks to those who voted for these packages. The gist of
    the problem from Arch's Trusted Users (who manage adding new packages
    into the official repo's) was "I don't use Ada, so I won't sponsor it.".

    Given this situation, I've created a custom repository for the (50
    odd) Arch Ada packages, currently served by a Linode. Details (and the
    current package list) can be found here ...

    https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Ada


    If anyone has any suggestions for additional Ada projects to add to
    the package list, please let me know.



    Regards.

    Glug ... I jumped the gun a bit.

    There is a security issue to be resolved. The above link will not
    show the full details til then.

    I'll re-post when the problem is fixed.
