Continuous Release 20250417 'Libadalang' cannot be built.

The Libadalang source tarball, from within asset 'https://github.com/AdaCore/gnatstudio/releases/download/gnatstudio-cr-20250417/gnatstudio-sources-x86_64-linux.tar.gz', does not contain the 'manage.py' script required to build Libadalang.

Hello,

It's contained within the Lankgit's sources.

Thank you for the response.

Unfortunately, the 'manage.py' script from Langkit appears only to deal with building Langkit. When using it to build Libadalang, according to the 'Building.rst', with the command ...

$ python manage.py generate

... the following error occurs ...

usage: manage.py [-h]
{build-langkit-support,printenv-langkit-support,install-langkit-support,package-deps,package-std-dyn,make,printenv,run-mypy,test,bootstrap} ...
manage.py: error: argument {build-langkit-support,printenv-langkit-support,install-langkit-support,package-deps,package-std-dyn,make,printenv,run-mypy,test,bootstrap}: invalid choice: 'generate' (choose from build-langkit-support, printenv-langkit-support, install-langkit-support, package-deps, package-std-dyn, make, printenv, run-mypy, test, bootstrap)

I have also tried the manage.py found in Libadalang branches 25.1 and 25.2 in the github repository but get the following ...

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/makepkg/libadalang/src/libadalang-26.0w-20250417-16134-src/manage.py", line 337, in
Manage().run()
~~~~~~^^
TypeError: Can't instantiate abstract class Manage without an implementation for abstract method 'create_config'

The master Libadalang branch lacks a manage.py, so I'm at something of a loss as to how to proceed.

Hi @charlie5,

I would suggest to create an issue in the Libadalang GitHub repository directly, Libadalang experts will probably give you more details on how to build it.

Ah, good advice. I should have thought of that.

Much appreciated.
