I've raised a= n issue on the Github GtkAda project (interesting that nobody in this threa= d thought to do that :-) ), so hopefully nobody will ever read this, but ju= st in case..... Here is why AdaMagica DID NOT find the GtkAda installation package in the "= more" directory in the first place (and why I could not find it even after = reading this thread!): When installing GNAT Ada for Windows, you first come to this page: https://= www.adacore.com/download where you find the latest Windows GNAT Ada install= ation file - you download that, not need to look at the "more packages" lin= k. Even when you DO look at that link, the dropdown list contains only "x86= Windows (64-bit)" - and why would you select that link? I mean you already= have the Windows install file!. If you do happen to select that link, you = get a page that not only has the GNAT Ada Windows install file (which you a= lready have) BUT ALSO the GtkAda install file, an unlikely (imo) sequence o= f events! Hopefully the issue will be fixed in the Github repository INSTALL file - e= ven if it is only to indicate the few steps to find the installation file i= n the Ada Core site. Peter
