[about changeing paths ...] oh : it's easy : a) one large rules file, that moves everything to the right place and b) edit every single file, searching for paths (with kde i could reduce this work to search all files for "kdedir", and only edit those who used it (50% or so).) but maybe the gnu team has a central place to configure the directories (if they use gnu autoconf, automake and libtool in all sources, it might be very easy to change the paths. and if they don't hardcode it in the binary, or use at least a central library function to manage paths, it might be very easy). after a long battle, the kde team also find out that flexibility ni paths and a central place to configure them is a good idea. and i hope gnustep is doing better work ! andreas
