From: Kevin K on 5 Jul 2010 18:20 It gave me the same error. I think it was something with the directory I was running the install from. A space or something in it.

A space or something in it. I got the same error (on Leopard). Had to tinker with the install script then it went nicely. Regards, Marc

The problem is this: when I downloaded GNAT GPL 2010 I also asked for XMLADA and the tar file contains two top-level directories, one of them called "GNAT GPL" (with a space). Below this is the directory gnat-2010-x86_64-apple-darwin9.6.0-bin. I ran the doinstall script from the directory ~/Desktop/AdaCore/Gnat GPL/gnat-2010-x86_64-apple-darwin9.6.0-bin and this is the cause of the problem. I worked around it by moving the directory gnat-2010-x86_64-apple-darwin9.6.0-bin directly into the AdaCore directory and installation worked.
From: Stephen Sangwine on 8 Jul 2010 06:22 I've now reported this problem to AdaCore, with the suggested fix of changing the directory name from 'GNAT GPL' to 'GNAT-GPL' in the downloaded tar file.

And I have been told the problem has already been fixed, so more recent downloads should not suffer from it. |
