I was able to install the GCC version of GNAT simply enough through my system package manager (using Void), but it looks like that is the only package available. I would also need the GPRBuild build system, the Ada language server (for my editor) and alire (for development packages). I could download a precompiled mystery binary, but I want to install them properly with a package manager. Since everything is bootstrappable I guess I have to to port these applications to the Void repos myself, right? How do other GNU/Linux users handle this?
In terms of bootstrapping your environment and getting started, I'd recommend looking at Vim-Ada and Awesome Ada. I also tried to write up some practical advice from my experience, which might be helpful.

If you need to build packages for many platforms, a tool like fpm https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm can make things a little easier, at the expense of making your source package a bit nonstandard.
