i'm pretty sure you just build gcc with some special flags and install the right files.

The repo ships a multilib version of gcc under the extras as gcc-multilib.

I'll push a commit to include Ada support.

[mmatongo]

I've put it on my list of things TODO.

I second, this would be a great addition! I have a few Ada programs I've been wanting to try on KISS.

i tried working on this myself and hit a roadblock, ada is a circular dependency and requires an ada compiler in order to compile ada. the standard most distros use is from adacore.com but its dynamic binaries and libs that are all built for glibc, i fixed one of the issues with a simple patch:

--- a/include/c++/6.3.1/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bits/os_defines.h
+++ b/include/c++/6.3.1/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bits/os_defines.h
@@ -38,6 +38,14 @@

 #include <features.h>

+/*
+ * Handle non-gnu libc versions with nothing in features.h
+ * We have no idea what they're compatible with, so always fail.
+ */
+#ifndef __GLIBC_PREREQ
+# define __GLIBC_PREREQ(x,y) 0
+#endif
+
 // Provide a declaration for the possibly deprecated gets function, as
 // glibc 2.15 and later does not declare gets for ISO C11 when
 // __GNU_SOURCE is defined.

and also by installing gcompat but there are still other issues such as __strdup and other things missing that i've yet to resolve. fortunately there are a bunch of patches from alpine/void for gcc itself once we've got a working ada compiler.

edit: seems void linux reqiures cross-building it from glibc void-linux/void-packages#4312

I've been looking at this for a while now and I've increased it's priority level, after all ada lives on.

I'll do more research and see how Alpine and Void overcame this.

Thanks for all your work on this!

after all `ada` lives on.

Ada's one of those languages that will seemingly always be used somewhere...

[mmatongo]

Thanks for all your work on this!

It’s my pleasure.

[mmatongo]

Kinda figured this out.

Awesome, looking forward to seeing it! I thought you werent using KISS anymore? January 23, 2022 6:39 AM, "Daniel M.

Not using kiss, I am using NOIR.

I should have it up in a few weeks, I just have some IRL things to take care of.
