The basic problem is that some Linux distributions (Debian,Ubuntu) 
support multilib (libs for various target machines, e.g. cross-compiling 
for Arm, AVR or even Windows, or even just 32 and 64 bit x86), and some 
tool chains don't.

If you are using Debian or Ubuntu, but installing another Gnat, this is 
possible.
export LIBRARY_PATH seems to be the easiest fix. Or install Debian's own 
Gnat package, as appropriate.
