Here are my reasons for adding this package to Debian: - GDB 6.0 is not even in unstable yet. Unless it has a fair chance of making it into Sarge, I think gnat-gdb would be appropriate.
- I am not sure that GDB 6.0 will work with Public versions of GNAT (3.14p, 3.15p). My proposed package does. - ACT has not formally released an Ada-aware version of GDB 6.0. If they have such a version, it is in their CVS and I would rather package a released version. I have tested my proposed package personally and found it to work without any problems. If anyone wants to test it, it is available here: deb http://users.skynet.be/ludovic.brenta testing main (the source package does not fit in my personal web space; please email me if you want a copy). However, I am more than willing to forego gnat-gdb if GDB 6.0 does fit the bill and does make it into Sarge. -- Ludovic Brenta.
