But building an Ada compiler works exactly the same as building C and C++ compilers. There should really be no difference. >> Is this the first time you are trying to build a native RISC-V >> compiler for OpenSuse? > > I have bootstrapped several architectures for SUSE and openSUSE, thank > you. I am aware that you have much experience building stuff. But building RISC-V is a little different than the others, because of link-time relaxations deleting code, which means some things that work for other targets don't work for RISC-V. It is possible that the scheme you are using to build canadian cross compilers will work for other targets but not RISC-V because of this problem. That is why I asked if this is your first attempt to canadian cross build a RISC-V native compiler. And because of the above, that building Ada should be no different from building C and C++. Anyways, all I can repeat is what I've said before. It works for me. I can give you my trivial build scripts if you want. Otherwise, you have to give me enough info that I can reproduce the problem that you ran into. Jim
