Description

I can't build on Ubuntu Noble. I've used a docker container to isolate this.

Here's the pertinent issue:

gnatcoll-os-process-wait_for_processes__unix.adb:65:31: error: "timeval" not declared in "Calendar"
gnatcoll-os-process-wait_for_processes__unix.adb:65:56: error: "timeval" not declared in "Calendar"
gnatcoll-os-process-wait_for_processes__unix.adb:203:37: error: "To_Timeval" not declared in "Calendar"

   compilation of gnatcoll-os-process.adb failed

gprbuild: *** compilation phase failed

Research direction

Start with gnatcoll-os-process-wait_for_processes__unix.adb at the reported references to Calendar.timeval and Calendar.To_Timeval. Reproduce the build in an Ubuntu Noble container and inspect the available Calendar declarations. Done means the gnatcoll-os-process package builds successfully on Ubuntu Noble.
