GVD was removed from Debian. It was the only package using
libgtkada1, and libgtkada1 was orphaned (i.e. no longer maintained)
and also removed. The maintainer for GVD did not have time to either
adopt libgtkada1, or port GVD to libgtkada2.
This is not a big problem tough, since GVD has been superceded by the
GNAT Programming System, which is in testing now. If, however, you
would like to contribute some time to re-include GVD into Debian, you
are most welcome to do so.
