145733 2006-08-31 10:34 0000 virtual/gnat is incomplete and has broken slotting 2006-08-31 13:38:08 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux Ebuilds 2006.1 All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 minor --- 1 devel@tstotts.net ada@gentoo.org jakub@gentoo.org devel@tstotts.net 2006-08-31 10:34:42 0000 Some issues with virtual/gnat : (1) =virtual/gnat-4.1 is in slot 3.4 ; however, the only dependency gnat-gcc 4.1*, is in slot 4.1 . virtual/gnat-4.1 should be in slot 4.1 so that both versions of virtual/gnat may be installed (since their deps are slotted such). (2) virtual/gnat-3.4 is missing one of the possible gnat compilers =dev-lang/gnat-3.4* after all, this is the most commonly used GNAT compiler and the only one marked stable on many ARCHs. george@gentoo.org 2006-08-31 13:10:09 0000 Hi Timothy (1) Thanks for spotting this! Fixed. (Although so far it had little effect on anything). (2) No. dev-lang/gnat is incompatible with new gnat-xxx compilers (in fact they block each other). It is obsolete and will be removed from the tree eventually (as soon as I add ASIS to the new ones, many libs (in dev-ada) have already been ported). Please see #111340 for more details. The new compilers actually work much better (in particular multilib support, which was simply absent in dev-lang/gnat, plus I got many failure reports with it), so I would suggest to try them, if you did not yet.. George jakub@gentoo.org 2006-08-31 13:18:25 0000 Sorry to reopen, but you need to slotmove the thing in profiles/updates to get this fixed properly. Fixing the ebuild itself is not enough. george@gentoo.org 2006-08-31 13:38:08 0000 Done Reclosing :)
