Right, sorry -- I was coming down off of being wired on expresso and not thinking/reading/associating very clearly. > override altogether (perhaps supplying an ada-gcc executable, which > would fail to compile C code if the gcc installation didn't > match... making it *much* clearer where the blame belongs.) Probably... Part of the problem is that dpkg doesn't summerize warnings about overrides -- if I run dselect and it chugs away, I'm likely to miss something important like this because it a) scrolls by too quickly or b) I'm off getting a glass of water. > Go ahead and reassign this bug to gnat.

But thanks for the info. Jim
