I used script of Ivan Vučica and in it is this line for building
gnustep-back:
./configure --enable-graphics=cairo && make -j 3 && sudo -E make install

I tried it and it works.

Now if I run
defaults read NSGlobalDomain GSBackend

then I get
defaults read: couldn't read default

Should I rebuild gnustep with the script of Ivan but with modified line
in it?

cd ../back
./configure --enable-graphics=cairo --with-name=art && make -j 3 && sudo -E 
make install
