This actually has nothing to do with Linaro GCC, the problem is simply that a current mainline snapshot cannot compile an unmodified 4.4 branch Ada compiler.
On 2010-06-22, revision 161147 was checked into mainline GCC: http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?view=revision&revision=161147 This revision introduces a change to sem_res.adb (Make_Call_Into_Operator), which recognizes a certain type of semantically invalid construct in Ada source code that the compiler previously did not correctly diagnose. Unfortunately, an instance of this invalid construct actually occurs in the Ada compiler sources themselves, which is now detected by the new compiler. Therefore, the above SVN revision also adds a fix to that instance, in file uintp.adb. However, this latter fix was not backported to older compiler versions. Therefore, if you attempt to build a 4.4 Ada compiler today, using a current snapshot (post 2010-06-22) of mainline as the host compiler, build with fail with exactly this error message. The fix should be to simply backport the uintp.adb fix from revision 161147 to the 4.4 tree. As this has nothing to do with Linaro as such, and is required even in the absence of the Linaro patch set, I'd suggest that this be done directly in the Ubuntu compiler. -- [armel] gnat-4.4 built from the linaro toolchain fails to build https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/608125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
