Package: gnat-6
Version: 6.3.0-10
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I encountered this issue on a newly installed system while performing
basic ada programming, a simple hello world triggers the following
situation.
What led up to the situation?
Installing gnat and trying to compile a simple hello world program:
sudo aptitude install gnat
gnatmake -gnatyy hello_world
What was the outcome of this action?
Here is the output of the above call to gnatmake:
gcc -c hello_world.adb
gnatmake: error, unable to locate gcc
What outcome did you expect instead?
Once my issue fixed, here is the expected output:
gcc -c -gnatyy hello_world.adb
gnatbind -x hello_world.ali
gnatlink hello_world.ali
What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
My first attempt was to tune the gnatmake command :
gnatmake --GCC=gcc-6 \
--GNATLINK='gnatlink --GCC=gcc-6' \
-gnatyy hello_world
Pretty heavy isn't it ? But this did the job. Then I figured out
that the gcc package, which provides /usr/bin/gcc, wasn't present.
Installing it also solve this issue.
Anyhow, thanks for this package in particular and great job on debian
in general !
Cheers
