[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#970660: ghdl: Please migrate to gnat-10

[Ludovic Brenta]

Package: ghdl
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: Ludovic Brenta <ludovic at ludovic-brenta.org>

Hello!

As discussed on the debian-ada mailing list[1], we are migrating all
packages containing Ada sources to gnat-10.  It is likely that gnat-9
will be removed from Debian before the freeze (and the severity of this
bug will then increase).  Therefore, please update ghdl to build with
gnat-10 and gcc-10-source.  I have checked that the simple patch below
results in a successful build:
