Hard wiring? was Re: [gtkada] GtkAda 2.0 on Linux: build problem

[chris.danx]

Hi,

Being a complete edjit I chose to build a snapshot off gcc, then build 
gtk and gtkada.  The builds of gcc and gtk went fine (after copying the 
snapshot to a fat volume and copying that to the linux volume.  Don't 
copy from NTFS to Linux FSes under Linux just yet, it's more trouble 
than it's worth!  I spent a day trying to figure out why linux 
executables wouldn't work only to find out it was a weird interaction 
between NTFS permissions, Linux permissions and linux executable files :( ).

The build of GtkAda fails because it expects gnatmake in /usr/bin and 
not where I put it (/usr/local/experimental/gcc/bin)!  Didn't think it 
was a good idea to rely on a GCC 3.3 snapshot totally so made it a home 
of it's own and when it's needed use export 
PATH=an_odd_location_&_a_path.  To be precise it fails when building the 
test app in the configure script.

Is the location it expects gnatmake hardwired into the configure script? 
  If so what can I do to tell it where it really is?

Thanks,
Chris
