Bug#748297: the libgnatvsn patch should be upstreamed or dropped
Package: gnat-9
Followup-For: Bug #748297
Hello.
The patch (now named ada-libgnat_util.diff) has improved its
integration in the GCC packaging.
Its header explains why upstream is not interested in applying it
(summary: upstream links GNAT tools with libgnat_util statically
during bootstrap, and is not interested (at least for now) in a second
pass using a shared libgnat_util for the end-user executables,
allthough they *separately* distribute libgnat_util for use outside
the GNAT tree).
Do you agree that this bug can be closed?
Else, please reassign it to gnat-10.
Thanks.
