As I am momentarily developping on Windows 10 but I want also to b able my 
programs oLinux machines I want to run the same version of the developping 
environment on both systems. Is a list of environment variables available to 
run the GPS correctly on XUbuntu or should I switch to another version of 
Linux and which?

AFAIK, FSF Debian GPS is still GCC 4.8, while the actual GNAT GCC 5.x.
Basically, there is no usable GPS for Linux, IMO.

There is no official release of GtkAda for GTK 3.x for Linux.

Then, there are serious issues with the gprbuild under Linux.

You should use gnatmake regardless warnings it issues. That in turn
precludes GPS. (In earlier version you could fool GPS by writing a shell
script named gprbuild that calls gnatmake from inside. It does not work
well now.)

You have a broken project file.

I do developing under Windows and build the results under various Linux
distributions and machines. Everything works, including GtkAda.

You don't need to fix Path variables to make it working.
