Hello. A bug affects the Ada tests during the build of the gcc-12 source package. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1066052 Such error messages happen on each (uncoordinated) change in the sources of an Ada library. Some sources for the standard library built by GCC are generated from C headers, so, as Matthias wrote in the bug report, this is without doubt caused by the t64 transition (especially taking into account that Ada.Calendar defines types for time representation). All/most Ada packages will probably soon FTBFS with a similar message. All/most Ada libraries need small manual changes and a passage through NEW in order to fix this (Ada -dev packages built with gcc-12 and earlier carry a version, in addition to the SO version carried by library packages). I agree with Matthias that we should instead start the gcc-13 transition in unstable. All packages are ready in experimental, with all library packages already renamed through NEW. But unfortunately also with intrusive unrelated changes, for example new upstream versions and a new Ada workflow removing the version from -dev package names. This will fix the issue quickly (only a new changelog entry for each package), but I would like a formal approval by the release managers before starting the gnat-13 transition. As described above in #1065309, all precautions have been taken in experimental, and all is needed is a rebuild in unstable with a new changelog entry. The FTBFSs in experimental reported by the salsa CI pipeline can be ignored, they are caused by the difficulty to resolve build dependencies in a context mixing unstable and experimental. For the record, some unrelated changes in the gnat-12 sources were already causing similar bugs (#1061631, #1061633, #1064745), that will also be fixed by the gnat-13 transition. These bugs are less important because they affect a few Ada packages, not GCC. |
