I mirror AdaCore's repository into Ada-France's monotone database. Gnatcoll is currently part of GPS (branch com.adacore.gps) in subdirectory gnatlib/src. When I get around to upgrading GPS in Debian, I'll see if I can produce separate binary packages of gnatcoll (i.e. libgnatcoll-dev, libgnatcoll0, libgnatcoll-dbg and perhaps libgnatcoll-doc) from the sources.
