[Ann] Ada related package updates for Arch Linux

Releases
1

Most of the Ada packages for Arch Linux have been updated, in particular the latest 2026.2 release of Adacore projects in the Gnatstudio stack.

Unfortunately, the ‘gnatstudio’ package (built from source) crashes on startup with only address backtraces shown, which makes it difficult to discover the reason. The ‘gnatstudio-bin’ package, however, appears to work ok. As a final resort, there is also the ‘gnatstudio-appimage’ package, although it is a few years old now (from the 20240506 release).

Pre-built packages are available at the unofficial Ada repository described here … Unofficial user repositories - ArchWiki .

Please leave a comment on the relevant Arch AUR package page in case of any problems.

Regards.

Did you try addr2line? Or is it built with no -g or symbol-stripped?

I tried addr2line and it showed no symbols. I also built with the !strip (no strip) option in the PKGBUILD. I’m guessing it’s built with no -g.

On OpenSuse, I get a crash due to a missing icon image.

I also got this with the gnatstudio-bin. I had to add the missing icons during the ‘package()’ phase of the PKGBUILD install. See here .

Perhaps you may be able to do the same on openSuse ?
