Hi everyone,
I've written an installation script for GNUstep, which has been
tested so far on recent Debian and Ubuntu derivatives. It should be
easily portable to any distribution, so long as you can determine the
correct commands to install all the dependencies and clang-14. It will
just install from source, installing all the files into
/usr/GNUstep/System and /usr/GNUstep/Local. It's based on @plaurent's
gnustep-build scripts <https://github.com/plaurent/gnustep-build>, but
has been heavily modified to only have one script that applies to all
distributions. I would appreciate it if anyone would be willing to try
it out, or to port it to other distributions. It is probably also
portable to other Unixes, but might not be applicable to Windows, iOS,
or Android.
To install GNUstep from source, please |cd| to the directory in which
you want to store GNUstep's source code, and run the following script:
wget
-qO-https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethanc8/gnustep-build/master/generic/build.sh
| bash
If you want to customize the installation paramaters (for example, to
install an older version of the libraries, to install from git |master|,
or to disable the applications), please do the following:
git clonehttps://github.com/ethanc8/gnustep-build
nano generic/build.sh# Or your favorite text editor
./generic/build.sh
Thanks!
Ethan
