Hi Thomas,

That's the AWS GPL 2.2.0 version. The latest.

Yes.

> https://libre2.adacore.com/aws/aws-2.0p.tgz

That's an older release.

I suppose you have done a "make setup" first, right ?

Which GNAT version are you using ? This looks like a mismatch between
the GNAT compiler and the AWS framework. The best would be to use GNAT
GPL 2006 and the AWS GPL 2.2.0. This is couple has been tested.
