You can trust Ludovic on this one. He is the on who makes the Debian 
pakages, an they just work out of the box. Besides making a souce 
install of the hole gnat tool-chain is very daunting task, but thats not 
my issue.

You are mentioning GLADE/GNAT/GTKADA in one sentence wich gives me the 
   suspicion that you are taking about GLADE the GUI-builder this one:

http://glade.gnome.org/

wich is not the same as Gnat-Glade this one

http://gnat-glade.sourceforge.net/


To install the GUI you simply have to write

Apt-get install glade

But be of ware that there are som different versions of it
and the standart maybe different on Ubuntu (i am sitting on a debian 
system) Some time ago the standart version did not have a Ada.

And the version 3 dont have any code generation at all.
that is to be find in the GtkAda package


good luck
