That's great. At the risk of sounding too critical, though, aren't the

You can never be too critical in my opinion... As long as you support it with valid arguments :)

GNUSTEP_*_ROOT variables obsolete with gnustep-make 2.x? Some projects
have bugs in their makefiles because the way variables are used have
changed over time, and it would help if the build guide didn't
encourage use of legacy variables.

yes and no. True if they where not needed, but since I make the users compile everything in /usr/GNUstep there needs to be some way to tell where everything is. So there are two approaches (imho):

1) Set PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH (ld.so.conf is linux specific afaik and I don't know all the options for other flavours of unix).

2) source GNUstep.sh and have it that solve the problem.

If I misunderstood your comment, or you know a better way of dealing with the problem, please let me know. The easier I can make it the better.

With kind regards,

Dennis Leeuw
