To confirm, you *only* installed gnustep-make, gnustep-base, gnustep-gui etc
from Raspbian repositories? You have *not* attempted to install GNUstep from
Raspbian repositories, and then attempted to upgrade using the source code we
provide?

This will be an unsupported configuration, and you should not attempt to
simultaneously have installed the packaged core libraries and core libraries
built from source. (You can, of course, build libs and apps beyond the core
libraries once you've picked *exactly one origin* of -make and -base binaries.)

>From the way you phrased it, I believe you aren't attempting to do this, but
I'd like to confirm and be clear that this is the situation you're in. If I
remember correctly, uninstalling Debian (therefore also Raspbian) packages may
leave some files around, such as /etc/GNUstep.conf, possibly even GNUstep.sh.

If you choose to build one of the core libraries, you should carefully clean
*everything* installed by the packages provided by your distro.
