Yes :-)

In addition to that, GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT and GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT have  
been deprecated a few years ago
when we added support for arbitrary filesystem layouts.

So it's best to say that it is installed into

  {GNUSTEP_LOCAL_APPS}/GWorkspace

Of course, GNUSTEP_LOCAL_APPS is just /usr/GNUstep/Local/Applications  
on a GNUstep filesystem, but might be something else
on other filesystems (eg, I think it's /usr/local/lib/GNUstep/ 
Applications under a default FHS setup). :-)

Thanks!
