That is right, sorry about it. Can you help me to understand how to proceed then?
I understand that there are two cases here, for general packages that depends on gnat. a) The package that depends on gnat version 4.6 specifically. b) A package that depend on gnat, but not necessarily from version 4.6, it can build and run on later gnat version, as 4.9. Based on these two cases, what is the case for pcscada? I understand that the a case should always depend on gnat-4.6, and if the architecture doesn't contain that specific version, then the package will never be compiled for that architeceture. Also, how to handle the b case, if it is depending on version 4.6 right now? They should be upgraded to depend on a more recent version every time there is a gnat release?
