You need to add the DebianGIS repository (use the unstable branch).
Stuff is slowly filtering into the main Debian repository from there, but 
works pretty well. Some of the java-dependent software (jump) is in 
contrib until it can be made with the free java clones.

libgrass0 - GRASS GIS development libraries
libgrass0-dev - GRASS GIS library development files
libgdal1-grass - GRASS extension for the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
qgis-plugin-grass - Plugin for accessing GRASS vectors from QGIS


$ apt-cache search gdal
gdal-bin - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Utility programs
libgdal-doc - Documentation for the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
libgdal1 - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
libgdal1-dev - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Development files
python-gdal - Python bindings to the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
libgdal1-grass - GRASS extension for the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
