I don't know what you mean by GNUstep packages. I installed the latest 
svn GNustep tree yesterday. Installing GNUstep was no problem at all. 
Etoile of course went not through without further ado. I had to tweak 
the sources a lot. But I am used to that. :-(

I would say this is a bug, even if the problem does not occur on Linux 
for whatever reason. I will try to check that out as soon as I can. But 
I first have to get a few other issues sorted out, e.g. logging out. 
GWorkspace does not work at all for me (as usual) which is no problem 
for me since I have and would like to use my own anyway. However, I 
have to make my Finder work together with the menu server somehow. :-)

Regards,

   Andreas
