This is described at https://alire.ada.dev/transition_from_gnat_community.html and also how to install the GNAT compiler on other platforms. In the era of the GNAT Community Edition 2007-2021 (https://www.adacore.com/download), the process for installing the compiler and tools was simplified from the 2007 version of the compiler and ended in 2021 with simply executing a script called doinstall where the installation directory for example /usr/gnat was pointed out and then the path /usr/gnat/bin directory was put on the PATH environment variable. In previous versions of the GNAT compiler there was a need to specify more environment variables in order to be good to go which I recently learned when installing the GNAT 3.14b compiler (https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuada/files/GNAT_P%20MS-Dos%20i386/3.14/) from 2002 on FreeDOS 1.3 (https://freedos.org/).
