I am a little bit confused. There is a libobjc in GNUstep svn and one in Etoile svn. I believe both Linux (Ubuntu) and FreeBSD use the one from GNU GCC by default. I thought the one in GNUstep svn is the same as the one from GNU GCC 4.x. Actually, on both Linux and FreeBSD, the one from GNU GCC is libojbc.2.so while the one from GNUstep is complied as libojbc.1.6.so (I think). I will check the libobjc in FreeBSD ports and see. Changing libojbc requires recompilation of GNUstep and Etoile, which is quite annoying. :) Yen-Ju > > David > _______________________________________________ > Etoile-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/etoile-discuss > _______________________________________________ Etoile-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/etoile-discuss
