--- Comment #51 from Marcin Cieślak <saper@saper.info> ---
I can help here - I am no good Ada programmer (total beginner) but got myself
recently into the inner details of gprbuild and how it really works.

There are alire packages like "make" or "openssl" which correspond to our
FreeBSD port devel/gmake and the base (or port or pkg-base) openssl
respectively.  This needs to be somehow handled for our OS - a crude attempt to
make "aws" to build via alire on FreeBSD is here
https://github.com/alire-project/alire-index/pull/1815

I am working towards getting gnatstudio to build, right now I was able to
manually build many dependencies of it (some of them are not installable via
alire), such as langkit, libadalang, vss.

Maybe we should create a mailing list or use some forum to discuss issues
related to porting stuff to ada?  We could use some corner on
https://forum.ada-lang.io/ or whatever most people here prefer.

If there is enough interest, "ada@FreeBSD.org" (or similar) could be set to be
a maintainer of most Ada-related ports.
