Having just gnustep-config in the PATH is pretty useless ... I mean when users install Gorm, how are they going to run it if the Gorm executable is not
in the PATH ?

Well, either by typing "Gorm" in a terminal or by selecting Gorm from the application menu.

For the former, there's a link installed by the package:

$ ls -l /usr/bin/Gorm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mah mah 41 2009-10-04 00:01 /usr/bin/Gorm -> ../lib/ GNUstep/Applications/Gorm.app/Gorm


Sounds good.  :-)

So, if GNUstep executables are found because packages are expected to add symlinks to them from /usr/bin, why the gnustep-make package isn't creating the symlink from /usr/bin/ gnustep-config to wherever gnustep-config is ? It sounds like a bug in the gnustep-make package then which is failing to create the symlink. ;-)

Thanks
