Hi all, Back here after a while (I had o be finished with my previous project before being 100% on this one: having a "Debian GNUstep dev-workstation". This post is just about to help one to figure our how it could be difficult to achieve this "simple" goal: having GNUstep "correctly" installed on a fresh Debian Jessie (8.3.x). I'm runing: Debian "Jessie Version 64-bit memory: 4GB Proc: Intel® Pentium(R) Dual CPU @ 2.1GHz × 2 GCC 4.9 & GCC 5.x installed by default using Clang/LLVM 3.7 installed from <http://llvm.org/apt/>1) Using deb packages issuing a simple apt-get command: - using this method, one already seems to be able to install "everything"... Too many IMHO, although,it seems to concern Debian maintainer(s) of the whole suite and NOT the GNUstep team... Thus, at least on my PC, most applications unexpectedly crash or hang out until one explicitly kill it (ex. ProjectCenter), other simply won't lunch (Gorm). To be honest I didn't try any other since I don't need GWorkspace or a SystemPreferences since PC & Gorm cant' satisfy my very first needs, actually. 2) Using Ivucica's GNUstep-Ubuntu scripts as model to achieve a GNUstep building from scratch, I'm now facing others issues: - 1) svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/tools/make/trunk make - 2) CC=clang-3.7 CXX=clang++-3.7 OBJC=clang-3.7 OBJCFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include \ #*** ./configure --with-layout=gnustep --enable-debug-by-default --enable-objc-nonfragile-abi \ -enable-native-objc-exceptions***: OBJCFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include Just because YES ObjectiveC2 is yet installed here after this set of commands: a) git clone https://github.com/gnustep/libobjc2.git b) cmake .. -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang-3.7 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++-3.7 \ -DCMAKE_ASM_COMPILER=clang3.7 -DCMAKE_ASM_FLAGS=-c c) make -j8 d) make test (all succed!) e) sudo -E make installSo after 2, I got: checking for gcc... clang-3.7 checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking for suffix of executables... checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether clang-3.7 accepts -g... yes checking for clang-3.7 option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking how to run the C preprocessor... clang-3.7 -E checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... yes checking whether clang++-3.7 accepts -g... yes checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... /bin/grep checking for egrep... /bin/grep -E checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking for library combo... gnu-gnu-gnu checking for apple compiler flags... yes checking for ar... ar checking for dlltool... no checking for ranlib... ranlib checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking if 'install -p' works... yes checking if we should use 'install -p' when installing files... yes checking whether ln -s works... yes checking for gnm... no checking for gnutar... no checking for gtar... no checking for chown... chown checking if we should enable strict gnustep-make version 2 mode by default... no checking for GNUstep filesystem layout to use... gnustep checking if we manage to import the filesystem layout configuration... ok checking for prefix... /usr/GNUstep checking for GNUstep configuration file to use... /etc/GNUstep/GNUstep.conf checking if we should import an existing configuration file... no checking for user config file to use... .GNUstep.conf checking if the obsolete --with-user-dir option was used... no: good checking for user defaults dir to use...

I've a correct GNUstep tree within /usr/GNUstep but no GNUstep dir within my own home, nor anywhere else...??? Did I've already made a BIG mistake or miss something important ? Since every install scripts I've being reading begin to install the Make System first, completly remove clang/llvm... In this case I of course can't use --enable-objc-nonfragile-abi option in the my command... And of course if I choose to run upon Objc2 it is probably to be able to use such a feature ;-) Ok, let's go further, just to see..., next step is to download the Base library and build it., OK? At this point, running a simple: ./configure shortly ends asking me to install the GNUstep Make first!? Finally, I begin being sarcastic with myself: I'm just a poor programmer trying to play with tools reserved for more experimented ones... or maybe to paraphrase the great William S. "something got rotten in the kingdom of GNUstep"... Really need help, just because I afraid that if William was right about the Kingdom of Danmark, I might be right 'bout myself as programmer... :-( Later, Tristan |
