Re: [bug-gsrc] Testing GNUstep

[Brandon Invergo]

Hi Germán,

Thanks for testing this. I can confirm that this is a problem in
Debian-based systems. Could you please confirm for me the location of
libffi.so.* on your system? I'm working on a solution but I
don't have it yet.

In the meantime, if you just want to test the build, you can tell it to
ignore the dependencies like this:

    $ make install LIBDEPS=

On another note, I fixed the problem with all those escape sequences
being printed out literally. I didn't know that \e is not portable, so
Dash wasn't recognizing it. Lesson learned, now I know. The changes are
available in the repo.

Thanks again,
Brandon
