problems with compiling

[Matej Kosik]

Hi,

At present I'm trying to compile GNUstep's packages.

My situation:
        * RedHat 7.0 with these upgrades [except the kernel]
                * gcc-3.0  
                * kernel 2.2.19
                * 
                * and (as I hope after some upgrading) proper versions of
                        the utilities mentioned in `GNUstep Build Guide' 
[www.made-it.com]
                        e.g. 
                                * GNU Make version 3.79.1
                                * iconv (GNU libc) 2.2
                                * gcc 3.0
                                * ffcall-1.8b
                                * gmp-3.1.1
                                * guile-1.4 [compilation is problematic]
                                * OpenSSL 0.9.6a 5 Apr 2001
                                * LIBTIFF, Version 3.5.5
                                * libxml2-2.3.9
                                * dgs-0.5.10
                                * [ghostscript-fonts-5.50 from rpm]
        * I have unpacked `gnustep-make-1.0.1' in `/usr/local/src', then I have
done
                ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/GNUstep && make && make install 
;
printf "\a"
        * I have added 
                GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT=/usr/local/GNUstep
                export GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT
                source $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/System/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
          to my `~/.bash_profile' file
        * performed
                source ~/.bash_profile
        * I have unpacked `gnustep-base-1.0.1' in
`/usr/local/GNUstep/System/Makefiles/Additional'
          and performed a command
                ./configure && make && make install ; printf "\a"
          which tries to compile `gnustep-base',
          configuration ran without problems [I am not sure whether I had to
have specify --host=i586,
                maybe yes, maybe no]
          nevertheless this compilation process ends with something like this

??? What have I done wrong? 
    I'll be glad if somebody helps me.
    Are there some other well known pitfalls [concerning compilation
GNUstep on RedHat 7.0]? 

Thank you.
