Re: Dell Inspiron 8600 dual booting windows and ubuntu 7.10

Yes it is correctly installed (most likely).  Particularly if the GNUstep Startup script runs without any errors, it should be installed (Note that ffcall comes with Startup, so you don't need it separately).   Also apt-get should be all you need as well, you don't need that and startup.

The problem you have is you need to source the GNUstep.sh script in your bash shell:


. $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh

(where GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT is the location of the GNUstep/System directory.  Note the '.' at the beginning of the line)

GNUSTEP DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL:
 
1.  Went to GNUstep.org > downloads > clicked on last bottom link of GNUstep for ubuntu blogspot.
2.  Added all the dev libraries on ubuntu first via synaptic package manager.  could not fint ffcall (later i downloaded it)
3.  Clicked on the GNUstep build guide link and went for the easy route in Chapter 4, using the GNUstep Startup script and got the 0.19.2 startup ta.gz of 6.8M.  Extracted it and installed it using ./configure
4.  Installation created GNUstep directory on home directory.
5.  Downloaded ffcall from gnustep.made-it.com and followed the link bear the bottom of the page for downloading and building ffcall.
6.  Here is where i run into problems:
 
a.  i placed ffcal inside the GNUstep directory, so i have /home/GNUstep/ffcall/
b.  i ran sudo ./configure and it runs fine, because if i run ./configure i get a permission denied to avcall directory or something like that
c.  then i go to gworkspace folder which is on my desktop and when i try to run sudo ./configure, i get "you must run GNUstep initialization script first"
 
 
does this mean i have not correctly installed gnustep?
 
how can i check if its installed correctly?
 
i posted on ubuntu forums and got this:
 
 
According to GNUstep faq, the only thing you should do is: sudo apt-get install gnustep gnustep-devel
 
So i did, but i still get the same error when i try to run gworkspace.
 
Please help!
