If you use trunk, you don't need GNUstep.sh to compile stuff ... ;-)
1. add /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries and
/usr/GNUstep/Local/Library/Libraries to /etc/ld.so.conf and run
ldconfig
2. add /usr/GNUstep/System/Tools and /usr/GNUstep/Local/Tools to your
PATH
3. set GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES=/usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles
and you're ready to go. Once we use FHS, then libraries and tools
will
automatically be in your PATHs, so you would need to:
* do nothing to use GNUstep
* set the single variable GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES to compile GNUstep stuff
and you can also easily switch between different installations by
using
configuration files.
Thanks
PS: investigations are still welcome though ;-)
In that case I still think that pkg-config support would be
worthwhile, as GNUstep is then totally isolated
theres no way for an external shell script/autoconf to know anything
about GNUstep really
since GNUstep.conf put anywhere and they can no longer rely on
environment variables,
I've come across at least 2 instances of needing the environment
variables
GDL2 needs to attempt to link to the Gorm libraries to see if it
should enable building of the GDL2 Gorm palette
and in porting aquaterm, and the gnuplot adaptor for aquaterm, it
needs to also look for a lib in the GNUstep heirarchy
to enable that.
