I don't have an answer, but it would help if you posted this as an issue
in the Alire Github project: https://github.com/alire-project/alire

There seems to be more Alire help available on the Gitter channel:
https://gitter.im/ada-lang/Alire, although maybe that will change if
more people post here; I much prefer email/news via Emacs Gnus to
anything in a web browser.
