Hi,

That’s great news.  Please don’t hesitate to file bug reports about the 
packages.  Many of the GNUstep apps have warnings that lead me to suspect that 
they won’t actually work, but I haven’t tested all of them (and certainly 
haven’t exhaustively tested the frameworks).

I should probably make gnustep-make a run-time dependency of everything that 
uses GNUstep - it looks as if the only run-time dependency is libobjc2, which 
is already a dependency.
