GNU tar is required to unpack PolyORB source packages.
Ada compiler:
For builds for cross targets, both a native and a cross compiler are required, as some tools (like an IDL-to-Ada compiler) are meant for use on the build host.
A Python interpreter is required for installation.
Optional:
Note: per construction, the macro configure
used to find
your GNAT compiler looks first for the executable gnatgcc
,
then adagcc
and finally gcc
to find out which
Ada compiler to use. You should be very careful with your path and
executables if you have multiple GNAT versions installed. See the
explanation below on the ADA environment variable if you need to
override the default guess.
