Simply set it as a given. Else you'd have to learn how cross-compilation and/or packaging (which is pretty much cross-compilation with target == host) works. > Since defining GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES to ../ before running make is > telling it that gnustep-make is installed in ../ this has a good > chance of working perfectly. > > But, if the normal install process changes the layout of files at all > (ie the relationships between the installed files is not the same as > the relationships between them before installation), there might be > some problems; Then simply don't let this happen. -make is in full control of the situation, code possibly bringing up the problems you describe would have yet to be written. All we apparently need is the GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES location and the contents _inside_ this one doesn't change with the various filesystem layouts. Markus -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl.
