  • [gentoo-dev] unmasking USE ada for amd64 and x86 on sys-devel/gcc

    From Alfredo Tupone@21:1/5 to All on Tue Aug 30 21:40:01 2022
    I was maintaining the gnat-gpl ebuild that build a gcc
    compiler that includes the ada languages.

    Upstream (Adacore) has declared to not provide anymore annual
    releases of gnat-gpl but only to upgrade the fsf maintained gcc.

    So I mean to add ada capability to sys-devel/gcc.

    To build gcc with ada there is a need for a gcc/ada compiler, that
    could be provided, to bootstrap, by the gnat-gpl ebuild.

    Actually dev-lang/gnat-gpl is only amd64 and x86.

    I'm suggesting to unmask ada for sys-devel/gcc for x86 and amd64:

    sys-devel/gcc -ada on package.use.mask on x86 and amd64 arch profiles

    No other changes seems necessary.

    Anyone against it ?
