severity 383440 important
thanks

> I'll leave this bug at serious severity due to the build-depends point.

Given that gnat (>= 4.1) is the only version available in testing or
unstable, I don't see any reason to treat this as release-critical.  The
lack of versioned build-dep means it's possible for someone to misbuild the
package as a backport, but that's not RC.

The other issues reported here all seem to fall under "violation of Debian
policy for Ada", which I'm afraid is not a policy I'm at all familiar with,
and not one that has been discussed with the release team as warranting RC
treatment for etch.  If you can show that one or more of the violations of
this policy render the package "unusable or mostly so", or that the package
violates one of the points on http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt,
then by all means it should be treated as RC; but violations of a policy I
can't find in the debian-policy package are not RC.
