@stephe-ada-guru : I’m using the following repositories:

@mgrojo: thanks for the report on gpr-query. The solution is to delete the alire.toml file in the gpr-query directory; that should not have been included in the ELPA package.
As for why does Alire download; that allows Alire to ensure it has the right version. If I assumed everyone was using Alire, there would be no Ada code in the ELPA package. It’s still there for now for people who are not using Alire.
@Pascal_Obry those appear to be mirrors of the ELPA packages. It is possible to build from that, but it’s not recommended; for one thing, there are no tests. The upstream is at Emacs Ada mode - Summary [Savannah], branch org.emacs.ada-mode. There is a file git_checkout.sh that will checkout all of the other upstream branches you need to build. Then visit org.emacs.ada-mode/build/Makefile, and run ‘make update’.
If your motivation for building from the git repository is to help fix bugs, then starting from org.emacs.ada-mode is definitely the way to go; it can also run all the tests.
If you really want to build from the ELPA repositories, you should clone ELPA; see emacs - Summary [Savannah], and then the README.
