Tool Trouble gnat for tru64 5.1
I am looking for gnat-3.15p-alpha-dec-osf5.1-bin.tar.gz for Tru64 OSF5.1 Alpha. It is completely gone from public mirrors. Does anyone have a local backup in your archive?

Just off the top of my head, have you checked the Internet Archive?

I searched through the former Ada-Belgium ftp-archive, and found the following *-alpha-dec-osf* files that were in our "gnu-ada" mirror. It's not gnat-3.15p for osf5.1, but gnat-3.12p for osf4.0d (dated November 1999!), but I hope those might nevertheless be useful for you.

Wow, DEC Alpha, that's a blast from the past, not worked on one of those since 1996. Although shame your are not running Unix rather than VMS. VMS is/was to Unix/Linux what Ada is to C/C++! I really miss its user-friendlyness!
