OK. Regarding gnat-gps I cannot tell for sure. AFAIK, only an outdated 
version is available.

Nevertheless, I found a few glitches to take care of:

1. In max_home_automation.gpr remove all directories in the file paths 
given in "with" clauses. The header of the file must be this:
--------------------------------------------------------
with "components-connections_server-elv_max_cube.gpr";
with "components-connections_server-mqtt.gpr";
with "components-connections_server-http_server.gpr";
with "components-connections_server-secure.gpr";
with "components-connections_server-smtp.gpr";
with "components-odbc.gpr";
with "components-sqlite.gpr";
with "components-gtk.gpr";
with "aicwl.gpr";

project Max_Home_Automation is
--------------------------------------------------------

2. In gtkada_contributions.gpr at the end you see this:

    package Linker is
       case Development is
          when "Debug" =>
             for Default_Switches ("ada") use 
Gtkada.Linker'Default_Switches ("ada") &
                                              "-g" &
                                              "-lgio-2.0" &
                                              "-mwindows";
          when "Release" =>
             for Default_Switches ("ada") use 
Gtkada.Linker'Default_Switches ("ada") &
                                              "-O2" &
                                              "-lgio-2.0" &
                                              "-mwindows";
       end case;
    end Linker;

Replace both "-mwindows" with "-ldl"

Now the command to build using grpbuild should be:

 > gprbuild max_home_automation.gpr -Xodbc=unixODBC 
-XAtomic_Access=Pragma-atomic -Xarch=x86_64

The important scenario variables here:

odbc = unixODBC
    (you have Linux ODBC driver)

Atomic_Access = Pragma-atomic
    (you have pragma Atomic working with 64-bit objects)

arch = x86_64
    (you have 64-bit machine)

These would the choices for GPS too. The issue #1 should not let you 
have project loaded correctly. The issue #2 prevents binding and linking it.
