You should not need to build libgnatcoll-db yourself.
If the issue is not fixed when you upgrade your system to bookworm,
you may install the specific libgnatcoll-db package from the unstable
distribution (except on MIPS of course).
/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable main
By default, prefer packages from bookworm even if more recent versions
exist in unstable.
/etc/apt/preferences:
Package: *
Pin: release n=bookworm
Pin-Priority: 900
Package: *
Pin: release n=bookworm-updates
Pin-Priority: 990
You may then use
# aptitude install libgnatcoll-db/unstable
or something similar in aptitude/synaptics/...
