Also I noticed that install.sh places files outside the user's home
directory (viz. /usr/bin, /usr/share/gpr/manifests); this is forbidden
by the filesystem hierarchy standard and also splits the ada-mode into
user-specific (~/.emacs.d) and system-wide parts; multiple users will
clash on the system-wide part.  The emacs variable 'exec-path' contains
/usr/lib/emacs/26.1/x86_64-linux-bin, which should contain
ada-mode_wisi_*_parse executables instead of /usr/bin.

So, a proper Debian package is definitely needed...
