I need to access data in a .gz file. I cannot find any specific info on .gz support in Zip-Ada (grep through the library). However, there seem to be lots of support for the deflate-algorithm which should be what I need right? Or does .zip and .gz use different types of deflate?

They use the same Deflate (that is, the raw stream compression) but what is around is different (the archive file format with entry names, sizes, control numbers, ...).
For .gz you'll be perhaps luckier with the ZLib-Ada project
