I wanted to give it a try. As the FSF had a certain role in the development of a compiler, I thought it would be best showcased in guix. However, it is not installed with gcc-toolchain (I am on a foreign distribution). Are there deep reasons why it is disabled? It seems to me that the objective C variant is in a separate package, so maybe it could be as simple as making a derivative package for ada. Is there a bootstrapping problem for instance? Best regards divoplade
