I just don't think we should disregard existing tools/processes
lightly.
Sure that's true, but remember that these tools are all for non-
standard systems. Whenever I think about a change to the GNUstep
system, I think first about how it will affect the standard, and I
mean "ideal" system, that we are working towards (e.g. one with a
nice working ProjectCenter, etc). Neither GNustep.conf nor
PKG_CONFIG_PATH would really be needed in the standard installation.
Developers always want to do something unusual, so we should make it
POSSIBLE for them to do whatever they want, but it's not required to
make it easy for them to do it.
