I thought that's what GNUstep-startup was supposed to be used for? I've personally never used it, but the way I understand it all you need to do is "./InstallGNUstep", right?
In my opinion, it's more important to have up-to-date packages than anything else, however, one needs to keep in mind that most distributions do not follow the latest and greatest. I, for example, use Debian Testing + GNOME most of the time and I know I will never have the latest release of packages, people need to realize this. Tell you the truth, except for when I create GNUstep packages and build scripts for Slackware, I never compile a single piece of software. Why is it different with GNUstep? Why do people WANT to compile in the first place? If I can rant a little... GNUstep also gets way behind when it comes to releases. How long has it been since the last collective release? Why isn't GNUstep releasing more stable releases? It seems everytime a new release of the core packages are out I need to recompile everything because it breaks ABI. Rarely do I see a x.x.1 release. I've been wanting to bring that up for a while, figured this was as a good a time as any.
