Hi Andreas, I have just updated the script at
https://github.com/plaurent/gnustep-build/blob/master/debian-10-clang-8.0/GNUstep-20-buildon-debian10.sh and verified that it builds fully under Debian 10 (buster) by testing it under a fresh Docker installation. It also builds the apps (like Gorm). That script was failing to apt-get some dependencies because libicu's version (name) changed. Also it was not doing the libobjc2 git submodule init. That script now correctly does both of those.
