Description
Hello,
I'm trying to build GNAT Studio on Ubuntu 19.10 and it seems like different dependencies are split into several repositories which themselves are not always trivial to compile.
E. g. gps needs gnatcoll_db2ada, which seems to require gnatcoll_sql/gnatcoll_sqlite which requires gnatcoll_core and somewhere in between I had to build/get gnatcoll-bindings-python, ada_language_server, libadalang. Besides that I received missing dependency errors (lal_tools).
Would it be possible to give more build instructions on a clean Linux distribution to build all dependencies and finally GNAT Studio?
Best regards
caloo
