Hi @list, I was kinda bored yesterday so I reinstalled GNUstep from scratch with a more OSX'ish filesystem structure ( i.e. /Applications, /Library, /Tools ).
Everything went smoothly, except for one step. When installing gnustep-make, everything is put into /Library, except the Makefiles directory, which gets installed into /System/Library/Makefiles/, regardless of GNUstep.conf or any configure options. Obvioulsy, the successive installation of -base etc. will fail, since the make scripts are assumed to be in /Library/Makefiles. The reason is in .../core/make/GNUmakefile[.in], more specifically the line makedir = @GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES@ which is always expanded to makedir = /System/Library/Makefiles IMHO, this should probably read makedir = $(GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT)/Library/Makefiles instead. Note: I install GNUstep as 'root' and do NOT set any GNUstep related variables upon login, so the configure script will not use any of these from an older installation/configuration, when configure is run. Other than that, I haven't found any problems yet.
