Following an earlier discussion with Ludovic Brenta, I have put back the packaged Debian Ada on my Crunchbang linux. What I am writing below applies to linux mint as well. Both linux mint and Crunchbang are direct derivatives of Debian. Crunchbang is so close to Debian that even its installation setup is identical to Debian!
I installed gnat via the synaptic package manager. I think it was gnat-4.6 and GPS alongside. On typing gnat-gps at the command line, I get in the message panel of GPS:
Welcome to GPS 5.0-12 (Debian) hosted on a i486-linux gnu)
Some year here -2010 AdaCore
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/gps/plug-ins/tip_of_the_day.py", line 628, in on_gps_started
Messages = GPS.MDI-get("Messages").pywidget()
AttributeError: MDIwindow instance has no attribute 'pywidget'
It could be something simple missing that comes with Debian but not on its derivatives that is causing me to get this message. However, I do not get the above message with GNAT GPL from AdaCore.

If I google "debian what provides pywidget"
the first hit I see is
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=654339
which looks relevant.
Looks like it might be worth installing or updating PyGTK.

Specifically, install the package python-gtk2 which gnat-gps recommends.

Thanks for the additional info, Ludovic, I couldn't see the actual
package name in the bugreport itself.

python-gtk2 was already installed (perhaps before or was installed during the installation of gnat-gs) and I have the latest version 2.24.0-3.
I will stick to GNAT GPL which works fine.
