How is the state of your GNUstep packages for Solaris? Do you still maintain them? Now that I have got friends with the most recent GNUstep release on Ubuntu I would like to build the sources on Solaris 10 (latest release) as well (still have a couple of boxes running this niche OS). I assume the prerequisites have changed significantly to those I used for my ancient tree. Do you have a recipe (list of steps) (CSW packages to install, source to build) before one can build the current GNUstep sources? Alternatively I probably could just install your packages but I like to have the GNUstep sources at hand (build able) in order to be able to work on issues should any arise. Thanks a lot, Andreas
